As Nvidia have seen fit to remove the archives, I am looking for whatever 8800 driver would have been the official (whql or otherwise) version on their site in mid October.
Does anyone know which ones they were, and were might have them for download ?
Thanks :)
 
The 169.02's were the only official drivers released in October i think, and they are still the only ones you can download from the download page seen as theres been no officals since, although it may depend on which card you want them for, as if you select any other card bar the GT, you get an official 163.75 which were released on the 5th November. :p

Aye ... I think the 162.18 whql were the ones that were up on the site at beginning of October, they were released July 07 by the looks of it, and remained up until the 169.02, which has since been replaced by the 163.75 or 169.09 official betas.

169.18 for XP ring a bell, as the Vista versions at the time were 162.22, I think thats what I was after, cheers fellas :)

Not sure why they went to 169 then back to 163, but there ya go :rolleyes:
