Best Forceware Driver

[BEn_2600+]

Hi, whats the best Forceware driver for a AGP FX 5900XT (rest of spec in sig) i would just use the latest version but been having a few problems, ive read on guru3d.com that drivers above version 7x.xx have issues with the FX series any links or personal experiences will be great.

Also the current version i have are 77.30 and i have noticed this:

Will this decrease performance as it should be on AGP 8x.

Thanks in advance

Think they removed support for FX cards some point during the 6x.xx driver line.

Hi, thanks for the fast reply, so would it be best if i used a 6x.xx driver or a 5x.xx driver?

Thanks again

Hi, Thanks very much for that sunlistix, but ive tried those and had bad performance and weird lag in bf2 (only in certain parts of the map tho). I apreciate the reccomendation tho thanks. Ive tried the omega version of what sr4470 mentioned and im getting good fps in bf2 (around 40ish @ 1280x1024)


Thanks again to both of you, you've been a great help

Hi, one last question, im still getting the PCIx0 as in the above screenshot, will this affect performance or is it just an error. I have AGP 8x support enabled in BIOS but it still shows like that.

I'm also off to hunt for a BIOS for my card now!!

Thanks

Ben

EDIT: I've fixed by installing the latest mobo drivers, I may try a different Forceware now ive fixed that issue
