Hello;
I am having a bit of trouble installing the latest drivers for my NVIDIA TNT2 Ultra graphics card and was wondering if anyone out there could help me out. I currently have version 6.50 drivers installed and would like to update to 12.41. Unfortunately, NVIDIA did not include a README file with their driver files (once the file is unzipped), but their web site states that the 12.41 drivers are good for all TNT2 cards.
My system: Windows 98SE, 600 MHz processor, TNT2 Ultra card (32Mb) and 128 MB RAM
The problem:
Before installing the new drivers, I set my system to the standard PCI Graphics Adapter (VGA), and then try to install the new drivers. Everything works fine with the new driver installation until I get to the screen where it asks me “Display a list of all the drivers in a specific location”. I click “Have Disk”, browse until I find the folder where I downloaded the 12.41 drivers, and then click OK. The problem is that a window comes up asking me to select the appropriate card for the new drivers from a list. The list DOES NOT contain the TNT2 Ultra (it shows TNT2 Pro, M64, and the GE Force cards, but no Ultra). I clicked on TNT2 Pro as the closest thing to the Ultra but a screen came up telling me that this is not my card and that continuing is not recommended. Being the computer coward that I am, I discontinued and re-installed the 6.5 drivers.
The question:
Does anyone know which card I should be clicking on to get the 12.41 drivers to work with my TNT2 Ultra? Does it matter? Thanks very much in advance for any help.
Best wishes,
Smeghead
