    The 266.35 Beta drivers from NVIDIA worked great for me on every PB game and every program I have used.

    Been using 265.90 for a week now and it is working almost flawlessly. Got rid of my problem with using HDMI to Sony Bravia TV. Only thing is that I can't whitelist Firefox whereas I was able to do this before with the previous drivers. At any rate, thanks and rep to people like Nautis/Kopicha.

    did you whitelist the right thing? you need to whitelist C:\Program Files(x86)\Mozilla Firefox\plugin-container.exe for FireFox to work. I personally using FireFox and from 266.44 that I release is working fine for the whitelist. 265.90 from Nautis should work the same.

    Just followed your directions and it worked, thanks. I was trying to whitelist the actual .exe file before.

    Ok i got some gd news n bad news...


    The gd news: I manage to ''force install" ur 2nd version through device manager manual update.

    The bad news: However,same error occurs if i run the auto setup from the file. The same goes to nvidia 266 beta version including the latest intel hd version as well. Cnt even do manual update through device manager as the file seems to ''missing'' when searchin.


    But im very pleased tht i cn play bfbc2 without getting kick anymore. But still was hoping to figure out whts with all those error. Thx anyway! ^^

    so you are running 266.44 that I modded or 266.35 beta from Nvidia? From your description it sounded more like your OS problem as it would not make sense if you cant even install drivers directly from Intel and Nvidia despite they are beta or WHQL.

    I installed the modded community drivers [Nautis] earlier yesterday and PB got fixed.
    Counter strike Source and BC2 ran but L4D2 kept on crashing.
    then I saw the beta drivers
    installed those
    same thing.. BC2 runs but L4D2 crashes, anyone know about this?

    Sorry I didn't read the last 15 or so pages.
