rhiridflaidd Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 I've been running my board happily now for a good year; and am wondering if anything has changed. I've just seen that nvidia have some sort of TCPIP acceleration - is it worth updating my nvidia drivers to use this. What about the nvidia IDE drivers- it was conventional wisdom many months ago not to install these. Is this still the case? Thanks for getting me back up to speed.

loggan26 Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 You know the score if it aint broke dont try and fix it, I am using ide drivers without problems, i have tried using Winblows canned and the Nv i prefer the NV, but that is just my choice lots of users will dispute......using the 6.86 legacy drivers Nlited.....all work fine for me.

rhiridflaidd Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 Yep, but if this can offload work form the CPU to the ethernet chipset, then that sounds interesting to me. But does it work? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wevsspot Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 In my particular situation I haven't seen any real performance improvements or degradations using everything from 6.53 through 6.86, ethernet or otherwise. The 6.70's have become my chipset driver package of choice though because they seem to be ubber stable with all of the hardware in my rig.

bestmancajun Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 My DVD-ROMs disappear after installing 6.86. Problems with Windows not detecting Razor Copperhead mouse upon startup seemed fixed but I need my drives. Back to 6.70. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
