When will my GF3 drivers from ASUS arrive?

Kingpin
I've noticed that almost every g-force 3 card producer have released brand new drivers for their hardware. . . I have a Asus g-force3, and I'm happy. I run it with version 12. 90 drivers. (from ASUS) But I would really want new drivers from ASUS.

Hard drive configuration change
