I will post the modified inf as these seem to be mobile.

Its beta, Im sorry I didnt say install at your own risk.

I installed the drivers, then I reboot , first thing I did was launch BF3 , my nVidia npanel settings were preserved.

I played BF3 for 2 hours. The stuttering is gone! The performance is soo much faster. At least 10 percent faster then 285.62 I use Fraps and run benchmarks. I hate it when FPS drops to 40's but with these,, I pretty much never saw 40's fps last night. It was in 50's and capped 60fps.

For anyone wanting to install these. Everyones rig is different, so Im sorry for the BSOD and captain america you did not have to dis me. Im just reporting news, Im just the messenger. I first read about these drivers fixing BF3 performance issues soo I jumped on it and you dont have to read my threads, but I posted it for my fellow brothers and sisters at Anand.


Use at your own risk!

I used them and they work amazing for me.

[BD231]

Meh, couldn't get these installed whatever. In other news, went back to the BF3 beta's and NFL.com videos work just fine again. Oye.

The 285.62 drivers work well for me in bf3.

At least you can play BF 3. Windows XP isn't supported so I have to downgrade to Windows 7 just to play 1 game!

 

[Nintendesert]

Downgrade? Ohhhh, troll.

I can't fathom why you would still be using windows XP at this point. I'm not implying as if windows 7 is perfect but surely the pros out weigh the cons.

You have to work hard to make vanilla XP come close to what 7 can do out of the box. On top on that, dev's are moving on which makes it hard for you to stay put.

Sorry for the thread derail but your comment almost caused me to faint.

Not sure which is funnier, the OP or this.

This thread took a nasty turn with this Windows XP 10 year old OS. lolol

Vista was ok, But I really love the box icons on Windows 7 rather the 1995 taskbar style with vista except with a preview... the button icons, the jump lists just one of the reasons why Windows 7 is the best OS yet. It will remain that way even if Windows 8 is out by 2012 like Microsoft says. WIndows 8 is all about tiling and making it look like a smart phone... extra junk,, I dont need large banner or picture to navigate thru my stuff. Windows 8 will blow you heard it from tweak. Windows 7 is perfect, with the help of a exe file that you run , so your windows sizes are saved. for each folder you can have different size. By stock 7 blows in this department and Vista didnt have this issue. But ya I use shellfolderfix.exe it saves all my views and iwnddow position ans sizes.. and its a 2mb foot print. thank you and gl,
