NV official 71.89 drivers released today

SLI folks like Kinney, <A HREF="http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_2k_71.89.html" target="_new">Go get em</A>. You can OC and use SLI together now. I didn't read the release notes for other issues fixed, but it is surprising yet good news to have 2 offical releases so close together after the long wait last time.

Fixes for this version. Mostly SLI related, and also the Temperature bug.

"This following are changes made and issues resolved since driver version 71.84:
• GeForce 6600GT / 6800 Ultra, SLI, Windows XP: Overclocking using
Coolbits does not work when SLI mode is enabled.
• GeForce 6600 GT / 6800 LE / 6800 / 6800GT / 6800 Ultra, SLI: After
exiting a 3D game, the NVIDIA clock frequency remains at the higher
3D-performance frequency instead of reducing to the standard clock
frequency.
• GeForce 6800 Ultra: The ʹTemperature Settingsʹ in the Display
Properties while idling reports an approximately 20% higher
temperature than with the previous driver version.
• GeForce 6600 GT, Windows XP: The game Lock On—Modern Air
Combat crashes when played at the highest graphics settings.
• Dual GeForce 6800 Ultra, SLI: System fails to resume from S4

fails to resume from Standby/Hibernate with OpenGL running in SLI
mode.
