1)I need some help in knowing how the hell do you update the drivers for the 8200 Deluxe GF3...
Well I haven't gottent the card yet, but since I know that some probs occured on the 12.10 when trying it with my uncle's PC, I thought to update them once I get the card installled from my PC shop. So anyway I went to DL the 12.60 drivers from Asus' site. But damn I don't get any of the instructions! Anyone please DL it, open the zip and read the readme file to see so. My situation in those driver update options would be: To update them while having the card already installed and its original CD drivers. How to do so? Will that keep the Asus apps in place and all that? And what are all those VXD files and EXE inside for, if the INF file is only needed for a driver detection, plus to that why the hell do they tell us that we can update them from the CDROM autorun if the damn CD ROM has the old drivers! How dumb is this? I am taking into account that you have indeed seen the Readme, or have the card and have updated the drivers to this version, all the while having already the old drivers installed! Hopefully someone can direct me how to do this, starting from beginning, like what do I do with the content of that ZIP file downloaded from Asus' drivers's site to rebooting for the last time and finally starting to play!
2) If you do have these new drivers, how are they? Do they cause any problems?
3) Say I wasn't satisfied with the performance of all the drivers by Asus, and I wanted to install instead the Detonator XP drivers, why can't I simply do so, and then install some Asus tweak or apps without the card drivers? Unless then it would think it is a Nvidia GF3 not a V8200? Cuz I don't wanna remove all this and lose the 3d VR glasses for nothing!
Please bear with me with this long text that obviously left some confused... But I desperatly need to know the most out of the card I will get soon, and not by splurging money for deluxe stuff that I won't or CAN'T use! Cuz right now this driver updating instructions and methods thingy by their readme file is nothing but confusion to me....
Thanks,
Vic.
