In my eXPerience using Windows XP, i have found that the Det. 12.41 WHQL's for Win2k seem to work the best. What are your thoughts?

Four-and-Twenty: ouch!
Heh. Me have RC1 &2 but haven't tried them out yet. I've got too many classes and work to try to fiddle with XP right now.
Hey, at least you got a nvidia card under XP, I gotta deal with my Voodoo 3 under it--which kicked arse in Beta 2!!!! You know the GF2MX's are pretty cheap, so you could jump to that and leave the TNT as a backup card for emergencies, which is probably what will happen to the V3 once I find something really cheap.
Oh, someone mentioned earlier about Win2k drivers for nvidia cards: still using 10.80's. Haven't seen anyones faster and got tired of trying new dets out to find the fastest.

i forgot about the 10.80 that is the only driver that works for me all around except for one thing. there is a little white square just below mid screen when i play need for speed. that is however the only issue with these drvers. i would use the 6.5 but those ones don't work with alpha blending at 32 bit for me and i use the desktop alot more than i play games.
If anyone has any problems try going to Tweakers Asylum's Detonator Drivers Section they have all drivers from 6 up to 12.41
just benchmarked the 8.04 drivers, i got a 246 3dmark increase in 3dmark 2000 v1.1.
Default benchmark:
1024x768x32bpp
12.41 - 5309
08.04 - 5555
get the 8.04's here:

BTW, i might add that all of my benchmarks are done with:
-cpu set at the default 667MHz (133) setting
-ram is set to cas2. pc133

Here is the driver comparison under 3DMark 2000 v1.1 (Default Benchmark):
1024x768x32bpp:
12.41 - 5309
8.04 - 5555
14.10 - 5188
I had to do the benchmark on the 14.10's twice cause i couldn't believe that they were that bad.
