    "These came from Station-drivers and a big thanks to our friend Onimesshiah for pointing these out

    Might be of interest for those that likes 169.04 but not 169.09.

    There is no modded INF just grab 169.09 for this set."

    Like they say, this driver might be interesting for people that like the 169.04 but not the 169.09 ... :)

    I'm curious about the performance with this driver (like would you get more fps than with the 169.09 driver???)

    i was starting to have severe problems with the 169.XX series, installed the latest driver offered by my manufacturer and am glad that I did. I can finally play cod4 like forerunner says it runs on his pc.

    as for this driver i dont think its worth it, stick to 169.04, as this one is using same inf as 169.09, came out of the blue.

    also an off topic question, sgtmat1 what in game settings do you use for cod4, without oc and with oc
