Nvidia Omega drivers with XP64

Spinuo · Mar 13, 2008, 10:36 PM

I am running WIndowsXP 64. Someone suggested using the omega drivers for my Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTX. When I went to the omegadrivers the do not list a driver for XP 64 only XP. I was going to try and install them anyway but I got a message saying I did not meet the OS req.'s 2000/XP. I noticed in my Nvida drivers the name of the zip file specifically says XP64. Is there an Omaga driver for my OS or will the XP driver work on an XP64 system?

Thanks

P.S. I was not sure where to put this thread if it is on the wrong area please move it to the correct area

Welcome to DH!

Sad to say, there are no XP x64 Omegas. I think the relatively small number of people using the OS keeps him from developing them.

Thanks, Yeah I wasn't thinking when I got 64 for this box...I normally would have just put 2k on it but I thought I should get a 64 bit OS to go with the 64 bit processor not thinking that no one is writing code of 64 bits
