    Hi

    I got a FL90 with a T7700 processor, i'de like to know what is the more stable BIOS version i ca use (i'm not thinking on buying a Penryn).

    Also i got a 8600GT 512Mb card, witch is the more stable driver at the moment for XP pro and the best for Vista Ultimate?(thinking on testing both to see witch OS gives me the best performance :D)

    Tks

    I use the 169.61 but most people recommend the 169.09. As performance vary from system to system you may have to do your own experimentations...

    Where did you get your driver and how did it improve your video card performance?
