nvidia 2311 driver problems?

I just installed the 2311 drivers, and my fps in UT promptly fell to 20fps.

This happen to anyone else?

Creative GF2-Ultra
P3-800 em
256megs ram

I need updated vid drivers as I'm using the 1241's currently to play DAOC, and nothing in the middle works.

The 1241 drivers crash UT when I try to minimize, the new ones don't. I want to minimize dammit.

Why won't these just work properly? Did I forget something?

Okay, out of interest, I tried out the opengl/compressed textures installation of UT on my comp, and I was getting about 75fps.

My normal setup for online, above, is playing on D3D.

Did nvidia screw up the d3d drivers?

from my UT.ini

Just installed them a few days ago. I din't notice no big drop in frame rates. We do have very different systems. Go to Guru3D for Driver Info nice site.

A question...

Whats MOH:AA like? Worth getting?

It doesn't come out until the 8th here. Are you only restricted to use Llamespy to play it online as well? The demo is :hmm:

The in-game is much like the demo. You have to go through missions. Of course, you get to drive the tank and take hold of the bigass machine guns on the backs of jeeps and in bunkers.

The missions are more exciting than the demo.

Don't expect a hella lot more though.

I haven't tried it online using lamespy yet. It's either that or input an ip addy :/

With the patch you can now list servers running th game. There is an option to go to gamespy but you don't have to.
