Did you try the Custom installation and have it uninstall the previous version?

Tried both. It uninstalls the previous version anyway...as witnessed by the fact I ended up with no drivers at all.

I tried 2 seperate downloads from nVidia's download page too, just in case.

Thank God/MS for System Restore which works (sometimes).

;-)

When I ran into situations like this with my ATI drivers, I would run driversweeper (see 3d guru) which you can have clean up after ATI or Nvidia drivers. It worked for me with ATI.

I've had drivers that had issues but never ones that were invisible before.

I'll try them again at some later date after scouring the nVidia Forums for issues.

FWIW my WEI for graphics went up from 7.2 to 7.3 (GTS 450) but my Peacekeeper graphics scores (2D accelerated with Firefox pre beta10) seem to have gone down some. I am getting nightly Firefox beta builds - though I don;t think I got one between Peacekeeper runs, I could have. That is all I had time to do for now.

EDIT - my Peacekeeper score, after running again, is about the same as the 260.99. So 2D acceleration is about the same.

Thanks for the update mate +rep.

I've read that this set is on par with the Quadro's 265.90. Which is very nice.

Definitely gonna give them a try when I get my 2500k + P8P67.

Thank you Aaron. First post updated.

Hopefully it will not be long before they are available for the other series.

A modified .inf will fix that right up =).

Yeah, but don't think there would be any point. The .66 probably is just .58 fixes with the addition of making it work for the 560 Ti and nothing else extra.

100% agreed.

In fact, the only time I've messed around with modified .inf(s) was when the Quadro's 265.90 first showed up.

Excellent driver set.
