New drivers have been released for Nvidia based graphics cards today. The Windows XP/2000 driver release is labelled 53.03 and the Windows 98/ME version is 53.04.
Whats New:
-Improved HDTV component exits Y Pr Pb for 480i, 480p, 720p and 1080i
-Accelerated performance with GeForce GPUs on nForce3 were based systems
While the 53.0X drivers were available from, I believe the EVGA site previously, this time the Nvidia drivers have the blessing of Microsoft with its WHQL scheme.
...
I have every reason to believe that Nvidia might shine again in 3Dmark03 -- at least that’s what I expect since there is always a work around for the current 340 patch if Nvidia wants to go down that road one more time.
