?? Your pc is fcked up somewhere. Mine works fine Duh.

yeah I agree uninstall problematic drivers a go with what works. nice guide btw:wanker:

Excuse me? Just logged on to see the feedback on this driver and find the gist of some of the conversation is hostile towards people that have drivers problems and old cards..some of these imbeciles actually feel that I should have to buy a new graphics card, just so the driver will work? Are you really thinking before opening mouth? There a a lot of us that have a life and can't afford new graphics cards every 6 months....I know that (gasp) someone may actually be unhappy with something to do with Nvida, but that doesn't mean that they are whining....never had driver problems ever since I owned a TNT 2, at least not like this for all versions of these drivers....so eat me....

This guide is nearly useless. The newer drivers actually have bugs for some people. Implying they must be incompetent because you didn't have any is laughably ignorant.

i stick for ever to 285.66,they are incredibly smooth and not a single problem

i am still on 270.51 quadro drivers, no problems and smooth....

phatbx, why is this a topic you want to be arrogant about. I don't get it, newer drivers work for you so everyone else is dummies. For someone to leach on 'I can user new drivers fine and you can't' for superiority must have self esteem issues or something man... it's just not right. Let me help you with how trouble shooting works. Problems happen right after you install a new driver- just in case it's the driver's fault you reinstall older driver- problem goes away. In case that scenario was not obvious, it means it's the drivers fault.

You shouldn't have to manually mess with your GPU clocks to get a driver to work, even if it does force it to (I did that with my 550ti by using "Prefer Maximum Performance but then later just went back to 314.22). Newer/latest isn't always better, fix one thing and break 2 another, etc. For people having issues, just keep sending in the reports with: http://surveys.nvidia.com/index.jsp?pi=6e7ea6bb4a02641fa8f07694a40f8ac6 And other means that ManualG has mentioned: https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/569894/geforce-drivers/official-nvidia-326-41-beta-display-driver-feedback-thread-released-7-30-13-/

Yep.

Yep. To fully pull a "it must be you because it works fine for me" would rely on the person having the EXACT same hardware configuration and settings as the other person.

I am currently testing 320.49. All the 326.xx drivers give me problems. Uninstall them and the problems go away. Been on 314.22 for a long time

@Cyberdyne I don't mean no offend to anyone, but I am try help somebody get driver work for older cards. My 560 runs fine with 326.29, other user have same 560 and didn't work for them ? so they blame driver problem ??? no that is end user errors.

I vote for sticky! yes I am freaking joking.

How are the 320.49 treating you? I've had good luck with them.

pretty darn good, no problems, at least this driver is a little more updated than 314.22. the last couple drivers 326.xx couldnt keep full 3d clocks in heaven and valley. eventually I was getting very low fps and very low clocks. what a freaken mess

I have a feeling a lot of this is going over your head.

These have let me bump my clocks up a bit more I can run firestrike at 1320/7200 and my 24/7 clocks now are my old bench clocks 1280-1294/7000 cards have been really liking the 320.49's.

I didnt test for max clocks, I lowered the volts in the bios to 1187mv because with 1.212v it would throttle from 1280 to 1228 when the top card reaches 70c ish, In the winter I`ll crank the voltage back up

Downclocking the 32X.xx drivers to make them work is pointless. They seem to work well with the 680 & 780 here in my experience (aside from the 36 hour desktop crash), but my 460 & 570 machines bsod randomly & upon awakening from sleep overnight if I leave Firefox open with accelleration checked (a leak somewhere?) I think the latest version of Chrome was doing this too with the 326.xx drivers. The current WHQL & betas will also cause 460/570 to have *serious* issues if I disable the extra screens and drop them to 1 screen so they go into low power mode. Firefox & simple 3D apps then become very very buggy causing the entire Aero UI to 'lag' and 'freeze' and even BSOD... Ram in all machines checks out fine with Windows memory tester @ 2 passes & single-stick testing with memtest86+ in *every* machine. Swapping the cards around in machines will change the symptoms (crashes occur under slightly different usages or the desktop 'lag' changes frequency but *doesn't go away*). My GTX285 didn't have those problems, but it was experiencing very strange behavior in Source engine games (hiccups & stutters in L4D2, nvidia driver crash/recovery in TF2 & CS:GO etc...) Rolling *all* affected machines back to 314 branch of before solves all these problems. So for now I'm only using 32X.xx for 6 & 7 series cards...(I assume you'd have to use them for a 4K display that does tiled mode like the Asus monitor as well).

"My 560 runs fine with 326.29, other user have same 560 and didn't work for them ? so they blame driver problem ??? no that is end user errors." Hmmm...yeah that's it....that explains why so many people with these cards are having errors? I guess only people with mediocre machines can run the newer drivers? Meh..I remember the 8800gts 320, and when they started dying in droves....Nvidia never did admit to a definite problem...but I will keep trying...so I will try the new drivers and cross my fingers...

314.22 are the last ones that work, there is alot of talk about it over at the nvidia forums as well. Ive never had such issues with nvidia drivers, but now Im stuck using an older driver. They should atleast stop pushing the update to people using these cards, most people probably just think their PC is dying.
