The latest Detonator 3 drivers (12.41)lock up my system with a TNT2 and Win2K.

Had to find that site that has the older ones to save me from the dreadful OEM drivers. The 11.01 set seems to be pretty stable.

10.90 and 14.70 are stable too.

Detonator 4 drivers will fix all WindowBlinds issues. We worked closely with their driver team this time around to make sure all WB glitches that occur on Nvidia cards were addressed.

Really? That's great! I'm glad to see that the new drivers will fix some of the old WB/DX/FX problems. I've had WinFX and some of the DX/WB features disabled on my PC for awhile due to weirdness with the 12.41 drivers.

I haven't tried my 14.70 drivers with the OD stuff yet. Anyone know how stable the 14.70 drivers are on WinXP RC1, most especially in how well they handle the OD stuff?

(If it matters, I have a GeForce2 64MB Pro card)

14.70 drivers seemed to run fine for me (on XP and 2k), though they dropped my frame rate by about 50% on CounterStrike, so I switched back. Also, they didn't seem to fix any of the issues with OD software.
