Thanks Loadsa, Just one question, I've only ever had one driver, from the Nvidia site. This ones had good comments on forum and i'd like to upgrade to it, I've got driver cleaner etc, and i know to boot into safe mode and use it, but how do i remove the original driver, and does that also need to be done in safe mode..?

Go to Add/Remove first and remove the Nvidia Display, then when your PC restarts go straight into safe-mode and run Driver Cleaner pro, then restart normally, cancel the Found New Hardware Wizards that pop up, and then install your new drivers.

I'm using the previous 174 XG release in XP, nice and snappy, good performance, and antialiasing isn't borked like it is in about half the current NVidia drivers.

Hey, I'm using the XG 174.93 XP 32Bit Drivers, And i'm running two screens... so i'd like to run Nvidia Desktop manager.
But i apparently needed a driver for it, so i got '83.62 forceware' And won't let me install it due to my driver not being compatible, Anyway of getting around this...?
Or, is there another way of running seperate wallpapers on the two screens... as this is what i want Nview for...

Is it just me or has the nvidia screwed up the hardware deinterlacing for video with these new drivers- the 17x series? Everytime I use purevideo when playing a DVD, I get really crappy deinterlacing. This has been a problem for a while now, happened on both gfx cards 640mb GTS and a 512 GTS, and two different OS's.
