Default To all those playing sh4 with an 8800gtx

Can you please tell me what forceware version your using with your card, so I have an idea which driver to try first when I recieve my 8800gtx in a few days

can't wait to play the game on it, should be a big step up in performance from my current 7900gt

I have a 8800 GTS (2 in SLI).... Im using the latest drivers (just dl them last week) and no problems.

I do not notice any of the SLI problems others have been talking about either.

I have a 8800 GTX card (just bought it) and I have used drivers from the CD that come along the card and now recentley the latest drivers from nvidia (international variant).
Works great with max settings!

Latest Nvidia drivers work great with me as well.

Two 8800GTX in SLI and I'm running the 97.92 with now issues.

(outside of the normal game play issues of a beta released product that is)

One 8800GTX using 96.89.....because I have a 26" widesceen monitor and all later drivers seem to have "Scaling" not working?, but works great in SH4, except for NO FSAA

97.42. I've been running them since the end of January. They run the best for me across the board ... from SH4 to all my other games. In time maybe SH4 will look as good as those games (otherwise - shame to waste all this high end goodness)

Using the 101 release in Vista. All problems encountered so far are just the standard bugs to my knowledge.

I got my 8800GTX around X-Mas (gift to myself for working overtime...) I put in the drivers from the NVIDIA site back then and haven't had a problem playing anything since.

SHIV looks beautiful, actually, everything does. I can't slow this thing down.

My EVGA 8800GTX is the best piece of harware I've ever bought. It brings any game I throw into a whole new dimension - A dramatic difference from my old (and once all powerful) 6800 Ultra.

I'm using the 100.65 drivers for Vista - Seems to work just fine with SH4
