Hi.Omega drivers were mostly used by beginners / people that did not understand how to set up and used the attributes available in the original Drivers. What they did, is to try to lock in a compromised setting and that would not allow you to get access to all the settings / attributes available in the original drivers. The users that were able to use Nvmax and or RivaTuner, etc., many times found that they could not access these functions any longer, and or they would get a system lockup. It was a good effort but I think they did not do much good. TV

><driver!>>Omega Drivers=pure Kaka!>>>>Kind of harsh, isn't it Paul? Not at all if you read the tone of the first post and then read Angels remarks over at Omega, my remark is the total summation of it all, pure and simple, sorry there I go again...:-roll>Not everybody is as adept at>tweaking their drivers as you, so there were some who liked>the Omega's. What is your point? The fact is they where bad drivers, its like if I released an Ubered Bios for your system that cut your memory timings as well as your AGP settings just because I could plus when others with same board used it their system would crash as I had been somewhat sloppy as I didn't take into account all the board versions that are supported by my "new" BIOS, would that make it a better BIOS?Perhaps that is not the best analogy but it is very similar if you understood what is lost by running at extreme -LOD levels, it causes pixels to "fight" for the same space on the screen, which causes shimmering textures etc. as well as the fact that you are using the card and it's memory very inefficiently, then going onto the many cases of incompatibility caused exclusively by the Omega drivers...Omega drivers = Kaka! There, I said it again! :-lol I had little use for them, except when I was>feeling lazy and didn't want to do the patch script thing on a>new driver. Still wouldn't help you as they where set at close to -0.8 LOD (a very inefficient, touch em and the settings would revert back to default.>My perspective of Bobby's post was that nVidia>was slamming a guy who was trying to help folks out with their>drivers. nVidia's action doesn't make much sense to me>either... why shut a guy down who was only trying to make>folks driver life easier?Because He made theirs and everyone else who had a problems harder as well as take a quality product and effectively screw it! Is that so hard to understand? No, and do you think Angel (Omega) is telling the whole side of the story?Do you really think if Omega drivers worked so well that NV would be bothering him? I for one am surprised it took this long for NV to tell him off and hope that they don
