X-Micro Ti4200 Driver under WinXP

[Topper]

This isnt a huge issue but the X-Micro Ti4200 refuses to install the latest Nvidia detonator driver (28.32). The one that came on the cd is based on the 28.32 and installs fine; but I'd like the opportunity to install the Nvidia driver as well as Im sure they would update their driver more often than X-Micro.

Has anyone else who owns this card come across this issue under XP and if so How did u get around it?

Thanks in Advance

Which way are you going about installing the drivers?

Funny, I can use other drivers. About the worst that happens to me is that I get a window that pops up when loading certain versions that states that it's not a Microsoft Approved driver. I tell it to load anyway and carry on from there.

If you're having a problem with only one driver, then it may be corrupt. Go to another website that offers it and try that one. It happens like that occassionally.

Windows XP Certified, the biggest crock of **** ever - Do you realise it costs companies $10,000 US to certify each driver, and we are talking each new release not just the one type of driver. Now you know why not all drivers are certified.

Well ive tried the device manager angle where you choose update driver and after extracting the latest nvidia driver from the nvidia site to a folder (all files are present) it refuses to see a driver there

whereas If i tell it to go to the winxp folder on the X-micro CD...no hassles

Ive disabled the driver signatures etc but with no luck.

It just doesnt want to use anything but the x-micro driver on the CD ( ive tried everything...giving up...going to trust x-micro to update regularly

:flames: Ok, Ive been looking and looking of where to buy this X-micro Ti4200, and I have even emailed the company with no sucess:flames:

Please tell me where to buy it. I want the 128mb version which has VIVO capabilities. :confused:

Please where? and How much did you pay for yours?

Well Im from Australia and I paid $462AU which is about $262US over there.

thanks Topper. Yeah, I just ordered mine, and cant wait to receive it. I think this one is a bit better than the leadtek one, since it actually has also good heatsinks but ViVo features as well. Cant wait to get it. Just sent my money order today..


best,

:cry:

Where did you find it?

[Bluethunder]

its actually not in retail stores yet, and I got it from a rep from xmicro. Its actually a model unit, i know the price is a bit high for 190 bucks but I think itll be worth it. Ill let you guys know how everything goes. the good thing is that it has all the manuals and bundled software.
