Craig Corp Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 (edited) Hi, Just noticed that Guru 3d has posted ForceWare 56.82 - they are assuming it is based on a Toshiba laptop driver: "Wowzers, a lot of ForceWare activity eh ? The Dutch based Techconnect posted a Forceware 56.82 Win2k/XP driver which originated from well known manufacturer Toshiba. They already modified the drivers to support all nVidia videocards from TNT upto GeForce FX. I guess this was intended for laptop's originally; should work fine on any NVIDIA graphics card. Details: Forceware driver 56.82 Windows 2000/XP Multilanguage version All nVidia cards " I hope that this one might solve the prob's with the Toshiba black bar issue. I tried moding it myself to at least include detection of my GeForce4 440Go and to include 1400x1050 res, but I get an error that the driver doesn't support WinXP when I try to install it :P I look forward to seeing a moded inf from you Pieter (please) :) Also, to answer the question in my last topic re. 56.64 - yes the 20.17 inf I tried was not specific to that driver, I just thought I'd try it anyway :) ____ EDIT: merged topic plus corrected driver version in red (2 instead of 4) Edited March 16, 2004 by dontknow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSudlow Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 Indeed yes, it's a mobile driver intended for the FX Go5700. I imagine Pieter will have an INF for the rest of us soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
®®® Posted March 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 i really was amazed when i saw this driver version in the morning over at toshiba. I have hope that this will work with most mobile cards in opposite to the 56.64. Don"t understand the hype for 56.64 ... ??? For mobile needs 56.82 will hopefully better than 56.64. Still waiting for the "official" 56.54 , but i'm tempted to think the 56.82 is a good replacement for 56.54. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSudlow Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 It's a bit slower in both 3DMark01 and 3DMark03 than 56.64, but my (purely subjective) impression is that image quality seems a bit better. Since it's a true mobile driver, I'm curious to see how Toshiba owners fare with the black border issue, and how Dell owners do with their lid-closure problems. On that last problem, the fix that Dontknow found a couple of weeks ago, which now appears in Pieter's latest inf versions, has completely solved the lid problem on my Dell Inspiron 5150.

Guest Velocity 7 Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 (edited) Son of a *****. Pieter, get this modded A.S.A.P. Perhaps the black bar problem will be solved once and for all. ____ EDIT why posting old news in support section??

Guest JFranks0987 Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 (edited) according to the nv4_disp.inf file in these drivers they are stamped this WRONG: ; NVIDIA Windows 2000/XP Display INF file; Copyright © NVIDIA Corporation. All rights reserved. [Version]Signature = "$Windows NT$" Provider = %NVIDIA% ClassGUID = {4D36E968-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} Class = Display CatalogFile = NV4_DISP.CAT DriverVer = 03/03/2004, 5.6.6.4 ____ EDIT: where did you got that false info????? why havent' you downloaded the driver for yourself and had a look at the inf???? so i guess they are the same or are they.!?!?!?!?! what is going on here i proabably dont even know if what im posting is the correct way to date stamp a driver but that seems werid to me Edited March 16, 2004 by dontknow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Corp Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 If you check the properties of nv4disp.dll and some of the other files the version is listed as 56.82, so I think they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mobilenvidia Posted March 17, 2004 Report Share Posted March 17, 2004 Well I was hoping to have the night of from all this. But alas, I heard the call of needy laptop users. INF has been modded. Check website for links. Pieter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
