QuoteJust noticed that windows update has an updated driver foor Nvidia (30.87 as opposed to 30.82)

Being a 'latest drivers' hound, my ears pricked up at this. So off I went helter skelter to Update. Nahda! Nothing! Zilch!. Went to Nvidia's site and 30.82 is the latest. Where'd you get that?[/b]
It is for WinXP. If you go to windowsupdate then it will appear as an option under driver updates.[/b]

This one?

I have to say that I've chickened out of downloading the nvidia driver update shown for me under the Windows Update option as I think that it is probably older than the one I am currently using. Pity they don't actually tell you the driver number before you download it.......

As for why it doesn't show up on BB's page I have no idea

Sorry m8, can't help you there.....

w00t there's progress in my problem, cs now gets into the game fine and i can run about for a while with no crash, BUT the mouse doesnt work. Now typing +mlook (to enable mouse) in console crashes the game immediatly the second i press enter. Anyone? I'm looking for the -noforcearmsacell or something like that for command line.

Well there's progress again, now it takes about a minute to crash using those. :roll:
Anyone want to buy an Inno3d Ti 4200 Geforce4 128mb card? Only one careful owner. :lol:

Have you tried any of the nvidia tweaking tools? See if it makes a difference (can't make it worse). Additionally, I wonder if you have a heating or memory problem?

If you have XP why not do the old 'Remote Assistance' thing? Is that an option? :idea:

Sorry to harp on about this but after trawling the internet and Googling away like a mad thing, I can only come up with Nvidia 3D Stereo drivers 30.87. They are for those 3D glasses doohickies.

I haven't downloaded it coz my drivers are stable but it shows in the windows update site as below:

never, NEVER download driver updates from micro$haft. They will screw with your system and it'll never be the same again.
