Nvidia updates.

For anyone with a series 8 or 9 Nvidia card there is an updated driver for it, it can be found here. (version 180.48)

Drivers - Download NVIDIA Drivers

The strange thing is when I uninstalled the older Nvidia graphics drivers and rebooted to install the newer ones it said there had been significant changes to the computers hardware and I had 3 days to reactivate XP, it reactivated over the net with no problems.

As I have not upgraded this computer for 6 months I will put it down to a quirk of Microsoft.

That's quite strange

Thanks for the update though, I know a few chaps on here have series 8 and 9 cards. They don't really publicise it enough in my opinion.

Ya I think I had just downloaded that one couple of days ago. I have yet to install it though. I have been having problems with Call of Duty 5 crashing.. and having a weird error after you close the MP. Im hopping the new drivers will fix it.

Apart from the reactivation problem, everything is OK.
