NVIDIA driver
I updated the NVIDIA driver to 195.62 on my GeForce 8800GT and it screwed up
my rFactor graphics big time. Anyone else experienced problems? I rolled back to version 182.08 and all is restored as before |

No prodlems here. rFactor looks just the same.

I've lost count of the number of updates I've heard about where someone was informed by a startup entry that only fouled things up. anti-malware data files aside. |

I had to update the nv drivers in order to run NFS Shift, but as I'm more or less done with that title (anybody care for a used copy?), I may as well go back to an older version as I've been experiencing texture corruptions in rF every once in a while too (usually during league races, of course ;-) uwe |

He asked about the driver not the card. D'OH!
I just mentioned my card in case he asked.

After a little more research and info gained from rFactor Central forums, I
installed version 186.18. So far so good. Several others report troubles with 190 and later drivers. |

I had previously rolled back to 182.08 in device manager when I had the
problem.
