dude where are the 22.xx series???(from the displayed, i'd have to pick 12.xx & 23.xx)

I'd have to say the latest 23.11s - fewer infinite loops in XP

The question has to be asked: what did MS change between Beta2 & RTM? Because I didn't get any of this infinte loop cr@p before the RTM (2600) release of XP...

I'm loving the 23.11's.
Before that, udner XP then it had to be the 12.41's.
They seemed to offer the best stability.

The most reliable drivers for me were the 10.80's. I'm running 23.11, but I've got 21.81 as a backup.

I use the Windows XP Update version for my GeForce III by VisionTek that is supposedly for 'gateway' machines... that is what its driver properties say it is.

(VERY STABLE FOR ME THUSFAR! With only the very occasional NV_DISP.DLL B.S.O.D. here now, very occasional!)

Using this one from the Microsoft Windows Xp update page, it seems all my programs that change the settings of the ScreenDevice context are running stably.

(That is inclusive of games that use DirectX/OpenGL 3D, PowerDvD, screensavers, & others that had problems early on!)

* I am going to however, follow this thread closely, as I am curious in regard to what ones from the NVidia Detonator family run the best for folks... especially those on VIA chipsets using GeForce III's, & most especially those using a GeForce III by VisionTek as I do here now.

I used the 7.58 detontaors for the longest time, don't know why but Deus Ex in 32-bit color under Win2k it was pretty damn fast with those drivers. I use 21.83 now.

Detonator XP 23.11 = black screen

I'm running 21.83 on XP with dual p3's, Via chipset and Geforce2. Might switch to 23.11 soon, since Win2000 is running rock solid on it.
