<description>&lt;p&gt;It would appear from some player reports that 175.19 may fix the current problem with the 8xxx series cards. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I will be doing a bit of testing to verify this today. &lt;/p&gt;</description>

This will comment out the lines. You will need to start your client with these changes saved as this doesn&amp;#39;t update dynamically.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So comment out the lines and restart/start your client to test the performance of your specific setup. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This morning testing looks promising.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<title>Nvidia Geforce 8xxx series card issues on WinXP (Indoor performace issue)</title>
<description>Whoever figured out the useropt.cfg thing is a genius. Even after updating my 8600GT driver, I still had very bad issues inside buildings. As soon as I created that file, however, it ran smoothly and still does!</description>

<title>Re:Nvidia Geforce 8xxx series card issues on WinXP (Indoor performace issue)</title>
<description>So ... not having one of the affected cards it&amp;#39;s hard for me to keep tabs on this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;#39;ve had a look at the drivers and as far as I can tell, there seems to be 3 major changes:&lt;br /&gt;- Occlusion checks have been changed for deprecated methods (presumably it was checking poorly and wasting a lot of GPU time)&lt;br /&gt;- Texture Buffering/ smart fetch has changed significantly (could this be the cause of the indoor object shading issue?)&lt;br /&gt;- recursive or parent-child object nesting has changed for world rotation calculations. (I&amp;#39;m kind of surprised this hasn&amp;#39;t had an effect on the vista face shading problem)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I could be totally wrong. It was just a quick look that I had. Can any of the devs confirm these fixes?&lt;br /&gt;</description>

<description>and I&amp;#39;m on driver version 177.35-177.41 I haven&amp;#39;t had time to test this on XP but I do know that the Texture issue within Vista is still there just so you guys know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, I&amp;#39;m wondering if I will get the same issues once I get my Geforce GTX 280 in on wed.&lt;br /&gt;</description>

<title>Nvidia Geforce 8xxx series card issues on WinXP (Indoor performace issue)</title>
<description>ATTENTION&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;175.19 has been pulled from NVIDIA due to &lt;a href=&quot;http://benchmarkreviews.com/index.php?option=com_content&amp;amp;task=view&amp;amp;id=194&amp;amp;Itemid=47&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;some performance loss compared to May&amp;#39;s 175.16&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This could explain why &lt;span class=&quot;name&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;DigitalPhreak&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt; probably couldn&amp;#39;t get it to work, because it wasn&amp;#39;t there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;#39;m gonna be trying to use the NVIDIA GX268/280 driver with my 8 series cards later tonight.&amp;nbsp; I hear that the performance of this driver works excellently with my 8 series cards (yes, I&amp;#39;m forcing another driver, yay for unified driver architecture!), and these were released about the same time, so I&amp;#39;ll know if indoor lag is there or not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</description>

<description>Been tinkering with my 175.19 mod for laptop install lately, and recently, I&apos;ve been able to reactivate LCD turning off when the lid is closed (original mod lost that feature since its a weird laptop configuration.&amp;nbsp; Only tested on my two Dells at the moment).&amp;nbsp; This and the old is still available via PM (please remember I take no responsibility for things going boom, etc etc etc).&amp;nbsp; I&apos;m really not sure about this one right now, since I spliced the mobile registry items from the older Dell driver settings into this one, but I don&apos;t think it&apos;ll be an issue with added registry values.&amp;nbsp; I&apos;ll be stressing it, etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</description>
