EEK! 43.51 WHQL Certified!

My thanks to Evildeus over at nVnews for pointing this out that there are now some WHQL certified 43.51 dets for both 9x/me and 2k/xp over in Guru3D's detonator download section.

I'm downloading the 9x/me ones now, more as time permits.

Don't feel bad, Quinn over at EB beat me by 20 minutes!

I really must be slipping, or getting old, or SOMETHING!

Any meaningful differences from the previous Detonator 43.51? (beside the WHQL logo)

Benchmarks went up with these drivers, but more importantly, so did my game speed. Good drivers

Hey BWX232, you have a problem with our NVidia cards? This is the 2nd or third time you've crapped on NVidia driver threads, bragging about your almighty 9700 Pro. Please stop it, or i'll report you to a mod.

So...

How come these new Nvidia WHQL drivers are not at the Nvidia website yet?

Its already been some time since this was found out so, Nvidia has to have some kind of reason for this.

Bhairav, i think you should watch your tone....BWX232 owns a Nvidia card too. remember? he's our senior member and he helped a lot of us solved our NV problems too, in my oppinion , the mod respects him too apart from us...........................................

by the way, he's not bragg'in, he's just being mischevious by expressing his ATI's feelings..........................

Yea and i want to try out the Cat 3.2, or wait the 3.3. Wait or is it the 3.4 now?
Stop before you start. This isnt the correct forum for flaming, ATI vs. NV.

Hey, You need to calm your ass down- I have had Nvidia cards my whole life and I meant what I said-
If I still had my 4200 still I would try these drivers out- I RMA'd it and got this 9700p- I am niether an nvIDIOT or an fanATIc, you don't even know me- So keep your flaming comments to yourself- OR I will report YOU. If you want to start crap w/ people go to the fLAME warzone.

My e-mail has been screwed up and I haven't been getting some of my reply to topic e-mail notifications-- I had no idea this dude was saying that stuff about me-

sheesh- I was serious- I would like to try the new drivers- just don't have an Nvidia card anymore- It sounds like someone is a little too sensitive about his video card
