LordTyr Posted August 28, 2006 Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 When I go into "MyHive" a Support area on the sitemap for Alienware & select my Video card.. 1 | AREA-51M 7700 D900T NVIDIA DDR3 6800FXGO WITH 256MB MODULE The latest driver they have is... NVIDIA Graphics Driver 8.4.2.6 Now I've had no problems, until I recently started playing WoW again. I get a blue screen once a week if I'm doing "to much" like chatting on White Wolf & have the game n Window-mode. This is starting to bug me because if you look at my Signature you'll notice the specs for this unit & with the money i put into it you'd think I'd can chat in JAVA & play a game as well. Now does anyone else here run a Alienware System... & If so, what drivers are you running? & do you game? or multi-task...? If you answer yes please post the Drivers you use or you suggest... So far I had one vote to use the 87.25 drivers... & he stated no problems since they've been installed which is a [month]... Could anyone help me out here? Just a gamer & chat addict & yes I multi-task up the wazzoo... Please help me understand which would be best... Thanks.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Lead_Factor Posted August 28, 2006 Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 (edited) Finaly someone else with an Alienware....Anyway, I use 84.74 for XP Home but for my MCE/Pro partition, I use 84.63. With a GF Go 6800, you can get some crazy overclocks in that m7700 without any cooling upgrades ^_^ Edited August 28, 2006 by The_Lead_Factor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any particular reason you use those specific drivers? I notice that any driver before 84.26 gives me scrolling issues with Java based chats & Java takes longer to load... How do sites Java-based handle on those drivers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Lead_Factor Posted August 28, 2006 Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 (edited) Sorry, I switched them lol. I use 84.63 for Pro/MCE because its an MCE driver and one of the fastest ive ever seen. I chose 84.74 because its pretty fast and also an official Alienware driver. I also had that issue with scrolling in Java apps so thats also part of why I recomended these.

Hey there thanks for the advice... I downloaded the 8474.exe from this site & the modded INF nvar.inf .... & trying it out, so far so good. Fast is correct. Luckily nothing has crashed yet....
