    nVidia just released "optimized" W2K drivers, Version 3.78 on their website. However, as we all know, nVidia's beta Win2000 drivers were way slower than Win98. If you installed the new drivers, how was your performance? (In Direct3D and in OpenGL/Quake3)? thanks! I can't wait to migrate to W2K, but the slow drivers kept me from doing that....

    3.69 drivers, Quake3 performance?

    Leo V replied to Leo V's topic in Hardware

    The "standard" way to timedemo Q3: -Make a backup copy of your "q3config.cfg" file inside "Baseq3" folder -Run Quake3, go to settings, select "Restore Defaults" -Go back to settings, select Video settings, where it says Custom select High Quality instead -Select 1024x768 for resolution -Click Apply -Now press ~ to bring up the console -Type "timedemo 1" [enter] -Type "demo demo001" [enter] After it finishes, press ~ again to see your average framerate. Good luck

    Hi, From my past experience (using 3.65 Win2000 drivers), Quake3 and other apps performance was very slow. I was using GeForce DDR and Win2000 build 2195. My Quake3 High Quality 1024x768x32 score was only 43FPS, compared with 65FPS under Windows98 (same settings). I've nuked Win2000 and installed Win98, hoping that nVidia will fix their drivers. Did the 3.69 drivers substantially improve your performance? How close does it get to Win98 performance?
