I downloaded them a day or two ago, they seem to be working pretty well. I'm getting a consistent 25 fps when maxed out at fps, aside from densely populated airports, etc., where I get about 20. I'm getting some smoother performance with 2xq antialiasing, as well.

I tried them on my FX5700 and they were very poor. Cut my frames in half.Went back to the 56.72'sSee you in the fence...CYYZ

I like the new Driver. In areas where i would get about 14 fps i now get 20's easy. I got a GeForce FX 5200

Pretty much the same here, of course I get good FPS 16-19 almost maxed up 100 Ultimate traffic.... so for the sake of being up-to-date, Im keeping them

Ok, so here's my report:- Fixed issue with corrupted menus in FS- Fixed printscreen issue where there would be a pause, or lockup.- Seems much smoother- FPS the sameStill more testing, but good so far.- JohnEdit: I was using 53.03s prior. My resolution is 1200x960. I use 4x AA and 8x AF from the drivers. My card is the Gforce 5900 Ultra 256mb.

I just installed the latest Nvidia certified drivers (61.76) and discovered to my joy that Nvidia has re-implemented OpenGL bitmap smoothing!They do mention in the release notes that OpenGL support has been upgraded.Now I can finally see the attitude indicator without jagged lines in theProject Magenta GAIFR cockpit panels!!!!!!!!!!!It also worked fine on my old PC with 30.82 drivers, but Nvidia broke the OpenGL implementation when they went to the 4x.xx series drivers.Ti4200-128 video card with WinXP on a P4-2.8.

I got a GeForce FX 5200I got Leadtek GeForce 5200FX 128 MB, now it appears that when I select my aircraft, the aircraft rotation is very slow, very poor menu performance, slow responses, but the FPS is great. Help! how do I fix this ?Thx

TY sir.Just a side note. I got terrible results when I enabled O/C with these drivers. While researching this further I see that ASUS cards have an issue with these drivers and O/C due to the 2D O/C.I thought it might be my older version of the coolbits reg hack but it was not. As mentioned, it is an Asus issue.See you in the fence...CYYZ
