Ok folks,
The video card i'm using is an Asus V9560TD 128Mb (nVIDIA FX5600 chipset). The drivers that came on CD are already out of date. I seem to have aquired a whole bunch of nVIDIA and 3rd party drivers and am in a bit of a muddle.  Can anyone tell me which is the most up-to-date and/or best driver set for this card?
Ta a lot
Phil

.... I would think the latest official driver would be the best .... 52.16 from nvidia .... although I believe there is a beta 53.03 out on guru3d and my mate reconned it has improved his fps in heavy cloud ..... hope this helps but I can't comment on your particular card.

53.03 is the latest version. Suggest trying them and comparing them with the drivers supplied with the card.
I have just bought a XFX card with nvidia FX5600 chipset and had lots of problems with CFS2, CFS3 and FS9 crashing but think that I have traced it to a setting in the BIOS. Enabling AGP fast write seems to have done the trick. Have heard that this can be a problem with VIA BIOS drivers but no very little about BIOS settings.
Good luck with your card.

I agree entirely with the VIA BIOS issues, I had a nightmare with my Asus 9560.

I've found the latest XP only detonator drivers do not work with many of my games,
