Just saw on the news portion of this site that there is an alpha release of Nvidia drivers for Windows Neptune, version 5.02. Says they are supposed to work fine under Win2k. Anyone tried this yet?

2D works well, but straight I launch Quake 3 Arena, it hang my system.

5.06 for NT4.0 give garbage screen on win2k

There is apparently meant to be another set of drivers for Win2000 sometime this week anyway, which according to a few sites will enable SMP.

Can only wait, and see...

I tried them and Direct3D and AGP support were disabled when I ran dxdaig.exe. I was previously running 3.81 drivers and when I installed these new drivers the overwrote my existing nvoglnt.dll with an _older_ version.

Seemed a bit odd. I deinstalled them cause without Direct3D I can't play Unreal Tournament
