Old Nvidia ForceWare Drivers

[Methical]

Hi guys,

Was wonderin' if anyone knew of a site where they keep all the old Nvidia ForceWare drivers ?

I'm having problems with my 8500 GT. Doesn't like the latest 3 forceware driver packs. It won't display S-Video at all. (Waiting on my DVI-HDMI adapter to arrive). I'm using a 3 year old driver at the moment. Its doing the job

I'm just after a site to browse with all the older ones. Nvidia's not the greatest to browse; specially with the new way they have the driver search. Guess I'll have to do 'trial and error' to get the 'latest' driver to work on my card lol.

I think after this I'm going to stick with ATi. Have had quite a few problems with Nvidia and there latest drivers.

I migrated to ATI about a year ago after being a devoted Nvidia fan for years. I got tired of dealing with all the driver problems...Always loading different drivers for different apps. I've been more satisfied with ATI since I started using their cards.

After a bit of looking in the Guru3D forum; I finally found my answer ..

Nvidia ForceWare drivers for Windows XP 32-bit

Yes, Methical, I think Guru3d is the best place, overall, to find video drivers, both new and old.
