[helmutcheese]

I do not have any PAL UK issues, just lack of Nview setings to adjust size/poisiton of screen.

These any better with Oblivion? Still getting bad stutters with a 8800 gts 320mb on 163.67's

These drivers are fairly awful. Nvidia introduced a new bug in 163.44 with UK PAL CRTs and has been in every driver since. The picture is Monochrome. Its trying to use NTSC as output.

Am experiencing the same problem, TV-out is black and white regardless of output signal setting, had to reinstall older drivers.

Did you both manually set to S-Video and make it PAL, then browse down to UK instead of univeral PAL setting ?.

Yeah I've tried all the settings including the same settings which I used with my older set of drivers (which was like you said UK I/PAL), tried 2 different connections too (S Video and Composite) but nothing worked
Did a search on google and there are a fair few amount of people experiencing the problem too.

Oh well, no biggie as I'm not currently playing any games which would benefit from the driver update anyway...well not yet anyway

Can't even install these drivers. Complains that I don't have a 64bit OS. I've got vista ultimate 64 bit so no idea whats going on here. Lots of other people in the nvidia forums with same problem. Tried driver clean but still the same.

Why are there still things that don't work when Vista has been out for nearly a year now?

Ditto, apart from I have bought Bioshock and cant play it, I was going to get WIC but I understand you need the latest drivers for that too. I am voting with my wallet and not buying any new games and letting the game manufacturers know.
