Just want to remind you guy this one....

 

By the way, WHQL should be more stable than beta (or may be not ?)

 

Think it dont do much for GTA 4 but worth to try

Brilliant, well done.

 

Now we just need nine or ten new topics saying the exact same thing!

What ? Did I missing something ? Did I repost or you just misunderstood that it is a old 181.22 beta one ?

Got nothing against you, dude. Just saying that some other IVumer who doesn't read topics will surely make another topic like this one. Then that topic will get locked, then that IVumer will make another topic saying exactly the same thing with an added note of 'F*ck you charlie stop locking my WIN threads' then get locked, then make a 'CharmingCharlie is nazi' topic. Sooo predictable.

I actually thought that was a new posting procedure anyway, so many seem to follow it.

I wouldn't be Charlie for all the tea in China, he must see the lock button in his sleep nowadays.

Actually if there is any way I can add a 'Ban User' option in Charlie's artillery I would do it. CharmingCharlie is like a mom taking care of small brats that just play rough with the other kids and puke everywhere. Imagine if Charlie were given the right to ban sh*theads here. These here parts would be clean from 'OMG LOLOLOL 1.0.2.0 PATCH OUT' topics containing rickrolls and useless 'GTAIV SUCKS WANT MONY BACK NAO' threads.

Just for the record 181.22 beta = 181.22 WHQL, with the exception of the "Not digitally signed" warning you get when you install a beta driver in Windows. So if you've installed the beta, then there's no point in installing this WHQL.

Works great on (64-bit) Windows 7. Really needed this one, since the 181.20 crashes Fallout 3. And GTA IV runs Ok with 'em too.

This driver actually made gameplay feel more smooth for me and also added a few fps. Im hitting in the 40's during the night time in the Hove Beach area and can maintain 30+ in most other areas.

Can someone post supported graphics card for this driver?

 

Edit: Oops! I already used that driver, so my card is compatible with this driver

It seems that the new 181.22 drivers have gave me a 6-8 FPS increase over the 181.20 drivers.

 

Thank you for the news of their release. I'd recommend these drivers to anyone with a supported card. smile.gif
