Forceware 56.56 and Punkbuster crash


({PiQ} Apoch) #1

Has anyone tested 56.56 on a GF4 series to see if the Punkbuster crash is fixed or not? I’d really like to start using 56.56 for some of the new nView features, but I refuse to sacrifice Punkbuster-enabled ET. If nobody else has risked it, I’m willing to try as I’m due for a driver cleansing this week anyways… but if there is no change in the crashing problem I’ll save myself the time.

Even Balance introduced a work around for this problem in the v1.069 release. It the fixed the problem for me, now using 53.03 with my ti4800.
Nvidia also told me they have fixed the issue and will be in the next driver release.

I did try 56.55 but got BSODs for my trouble.

Alright, thanks… I’ll give it a shot and report my findings.

Everything’s working great so far… 56.56 has some excellent improvements to nView and a lot of cool features. There seems to be a bit better performance in some games as well. I’m happy with the upgrade.
