I use 3.64 drivers under 2183 to play Q3A under OpenGL and FreeSpace2 under D3D - plus using DirectDraw for MediaPlayer and QuickTime.
 
I just have to remember to shut down the Distributed.Net client first . . .

You'll have to use 3.56 or earlier. After 3.56 states (on Nvidia developer site) you'll need build 2169 or 2183.

how well do the 3.6x drivers work, Im looking for 2195, so i will be able to use the new drivers. im using hte 1.89 driver revision. Im pretty happy with it. Im hoping the newer ones will squeeze out a few more fps but i doubt it.

The 3.65 driver works fine under 2195 - I've just played Q3A and it's great.
 
Even better, SMP works.

I just got 2183 working correctly it didnt seem to like being installed over rc2, anyway now with the new 3.65 drivers q3 seems slower.
