        Excellent,

        Now I guess I'll wait about a week to 10 days and see what the final concensis is on THIS driver before actually going off and doing the update.
        Go Bunny GO!

          Oh, it's fine. Erm, except for the bugs.

          Actually I kind of preferred 4.1, but then again I can't be 100% sure that what is actually 4.2 is actually what I played with.

                Any idea where the 3D profiles are kept/saved ?
                I've just began using this feat and since I do a thorough uninstall every time new drivers come out, I want to be able to backup and put them back in.

                  I think they're better than the 4.1's still have great problems with the incorrect drivers being used for the incorrect monitors.

                  UT2k3 and 3dmark use one set and Tigerwoods and UT2k4 use the other. Roll on single monitor setup.

                      8.9 won't install on my machine. In any case the TV Wonder PCI is very particular about working at all in this machine. I got it to work briefly and then it stopped (this was using mmc 8.8 with the 1-11-0 drivers) To be honest I am tired of the TV Wonder (which worked ok in my old KT7/G400/SBLive! setup) and ready to get an Avermedia 878a board (which worked great in this K7S8XE/Parhelia/Audigy2 setup when I was in the UK). Just bought a "520W" VIO PSU which claims an impressive 30A on the 3.3V line, 45A on the 5V line, 18A on the 12V line, 0.8A on the -5V and -12V lines and 2A on the 5VSB line, so I'll see whether this helps any.

                          Warcraft 3 occassionally does some "funny" things with the 4.2s...

                            Just grabbed Omega version of the 4.2s, was using Omega 4.1.
                            Differences I have noted:
                            Fastwrites is forced on (9600pro card), previously it said it was available, but after applying and rebooting it turned it off.
                            3D settings tabs seem to work (went wrong for me on Omega 4.1)
                            Both these changes are Omega specific, though.
