Hello...I just tried to update my NVIDIA detonator drivers from v. 23.11 to v. 28.32. I have an ASUS V7700 GeForce 2 GTS card. I use Windows 98.
I cannot get 1024x768 on my Optiquest 4000TC monitor.
I can get ONLY 800 x 600 which I abhor.
I even removed the 23.11 drivers then installed the 28.32 drivers with the VGA driver in place. I am using 75 Hz refresh which always works.
Also, under DEVICE MANAGER and under NVIDIA'S GeForce 2 GTS monitor tab, there is showing ver.4.13.01.2832 display driver. The update date shows as 03-09-2002 which is correct.
I have my AGP set to 2X in my BIOS as I know this old geezer monitor wont support 4X.
How can I get to 1024x768 which used to run when using the old 23.11 drivers? Also I just re-installed WIN 98 due to some missing files which now seem to be back.
Thank you.

Version 27.50 and later is only for the GeForce 4 cards really. 23.11 remains best for Geforce 3 and earlier graphics cards. Highly recommend going back to 23.11

Yeah many people have experienced performance decreases with 28.32 with anything under a GF4. I still use 23.11. If there still problems, maybe get the 23.12. They are supposed to solve a couple problems.
