OK, I spent half the weekend testing drivers for my Ti-4200 card to
find the fastest driver AND to try to find a driver that loaded
overlay color settings and games profiles color setting after reboot
(without having to apply again).
Not a success as you can see. None of the drivers in the 6x.xx and
7x.xx series work well on a 4200 card (some feedback I got is that it
works on 6x.xx cards though).
The other settings for games profiles work (quality etc) but not
colors profiles after boot (they work just after jo apply them in the
control panel as long as you don't boot, that's tru for the overlay
color setting as well). Only thing that works is that the desktop
color settings are restored at boottime (I guess they couldn't have
missed if this disn't work
So it would seem that no one cares about us that bought 42xx series
cards anymore :-(
I have not managed to get any comment or feedback from Nvidia either
:-(
Well the test results might be interesting for all 4xxx cards owners
anyway, right
Any if anyone else can confirm the problem OR have a solution then
please tell me!
