Title: nForce2 IDE Drivers
Post by: TeaLeaf on May 25, 2003, 09:45:11 AM
You may have read about the possible problems present in the 2.41 nForce2 IDE drivers.  nVidia replaced those drivers with the newer 2.42 drivers which were supposed to be "fixed". Unfortunately it seems that those drivers may have some problems too, so both the 2.41 and 2.42 drivers have been taken off their site. nVidia have posted a link to removal instructions for those who are experiencing IDE slowdown problems and wish to revert back to the stable 2.03 drivers.

The download page for the drivers is here (http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?IO=nforce_udp_winxp_2.03)
The instructions as to how to revert back to the 2.03 drivers can be downloaded from here (http://download.nvida.com/Windows/nForce/Recovery_Instructions.zip)
The Enquirer articles referring to the problem discovery and the pulling of the newer drivers can be found here (http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=9606) and here (http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=9639).

Bottom line is that we should expect to see some revised nForce2 drivers out fairly quickly, so please post here if you see they have been released.  :D
