178.24 Official WHQL

[deuse]

Thanks for the heads up

 

[Steedie]

anyone else having problems with the xp64 driver?

seems the package is corrupted..

Getting that but on Vista 64

 

[bledd]

ffs, the xp 64 download is corrupt, downloaded it 3 times now (all other downloads are fine)

can't find any other mirrors for it that work either.

Looks like problem with the UK mirror for the Vista64 drivers (filesize is smaller). Grab 'em from the US mirror instead boys:

Vista64: http://us.download.nvidia.com/Windows/178.24/178.24_geforce_winvista_64bit_international_whql.exe

Bledd, after a bit of playing around with the prefix I found a working european mirror for you (dunno if the file will be corrupt though!):
XP64: http://de.download.nvidia.com/Windows/178.24/178.24_geforce_winxp_64bit_international_whql.exe

Cheers HangTime.

 

[rjk]

that was a massive pain

lots of corrupt dlls etc

Here's hoping they have got the bugs out of the last release.

 

[Snograt]

I'm doubting it, if they can't even get the bugs out of their compression software :/

 

[Duran]

cheers, the last ones were crap for me as well

has the HDMI problem sorted out?

 

[braveheart]

it worked fine for me - download via Fx3 was corrupt cos I was using Nvidia Uk so I changed to Nvidia USA and it work fine -- the UK download was 107MB that seem not right one as US showed at 99.8MB download so it worked fine all way included SLi mode

 

[bledd]

so anyone got a working link to the XP64 one? i've tried 4 and they're all corrupt

 

[helmutcheese]

UK is really the EU Drivers so are always bigger as they contain all other languages, the US only contains ENG.

 

[bledd]

drivers are now all working. (not corrupt)

 

[TALON1973]

so using the usa drivers makes no difference to eu ones ?

 

[Snakedoctor]

Hmm, I too have had some weird "locks" over the last week or so. Lets see if this sorts it.

They seem much better to me too, no problems at all so far after a hard nights gaming and thats with an Asus P5k deluxe so not seen that problem either up to now (Crisis and WAR played only though)
