    Today I tested my new pair of 7300GT and also have faced with problems on 85.96.
    It was for the first time

    I didn't begin to search for the reason of these problems, I have simply reinstalled the driver to 84.56.

    This driver is very much pleasant to me, it's WHQL, but unfortunately not FM approved.

    I never before published it.

    I have added support for videocards:
    7300GT
    7900GTO
    7900GS
    7950GT

    Here it is: http://steffbard.com/drv_04/84.56_mod2.exe ( FW_84.56_mod / about 16MB )

    Enjoy

    Drivers 81, 84, 85 and 86 series do not support cards with two GPU, I wrote about it already many times.

    Alright no problem

    But a quick question Big Sam. I tryd several settings in the nvidia profiles but in Fifa07 iam getting in normal mode better result compared to SLI mode with the 85,96 mod drivers. Would Fifa07 run better with these drivers in SLI ? because you mentioned that modern games would run better on the 84.56_2 mod drivers. I hope to hear from you soon

    And not to forget Thanks in advance for the nice jobs your did/doing here You definitly my hero

    Unfortunately I absolutely don't have time to play games and when I spoke about them I had in view of only supervision over various fragments of 3D Marks.
    It seems to me that 84.65 uses pixel shaders little another and consequently minimal FPS in heavy stages little bit above than on 84.21. It's only my opinion and I can be not right.

    Thank you, thank you, Big_Sam! Your modified driver is a godsend to me. You see, I have had this problem. I have a 7950GT, and I like to play Thief the Dark Project (TDP). Nvidia driver versions 9xxx and more recent do not play TDP. You get a BSOD. Nvidia driver versions of the 8xxx series and older do not recognize a 7950 GT, so they won't install. I looked high and low at Guru3D and elsewhere for a modified driver, and I could find nothing that worked. Finally I discovered a combination of an EVGA modified 84.56 and a modified INF file that I assembled myself and installed. That version played TDP, but it would not work for SLI. Then I stumbled on your driver. Your driver does everything I need: it installs, plays TDP, runs SLI, and has the old control panel. It should be a boon to Thief players, so I have posted a link to this thread in a Thief forum at TTLG.com. Thanks again.
