Video Card and Drivers

Kent · 10-06-2003, 12:49 PM

I am using (according to Gateway)

Video Card: Riva 32MB TNT-2 M64 AGP Video Card R1

They didn't know which driver I'm using, but they said to upgrade to:

7509286.exe - Nvidia GeForce Video driver, version 4.12.01.0532

Please, let me know if I have a good video card and is this video card and driver sufficient to run the screen saver?

The nVidia TnT Riva 32MB is a pretty old card, but it runs the Aquarium satisfactorily.

Can I ask what version of Windows you are running?

I wouldn't change drivers unless you are having problems with the current version. For TnT Rivas, I do not recommend a GeForce driver but actually older drivers.

I'd stick with what works.
