Thumbs up Gainward 42.30 Detonator Drivers & EXPERTool 3.05!

Finally found some working links:

Gainward 42.30
http://www.nvision.pl/cgi-bin/get.pl.../w9x-4230.exe&

EXPERTool 3.05
http://www.nvision.pl/cgi-bin/get.pl...xperttool.zip&

Haven't tried them out yet but soon will as the 43.00's don't play well with my system.

I liked ExperTool but it would never re-apply the settings I set after a reboot.

Now I just use Rivatuner.

I found these at the Gainward site. Is the link you have for the 42.30 for XP or W9x?

How are these drivers? Are they supposed to do much over the 41.09s?

At the Gainward site they had the 42.30s, Expertool 3.05, and something else called WDM driver. Do you know what the WDM driver does?

WDM drivers are for your VIVO (Video In, Video Out). Some Nvidia cards have them and some don't. However, most of the newer ones do. It allows you to watch tv on your computer, or use your tv as a monitor etc.

I'm running Gainward's v42.30 drivers and their latest Expert Tool v3.06. The drivers work the best of any I've tried with my Gainward GeForce4 PowerPack! Pro/600 TV 64MB.
