Re: GeForce ForceWare 185.20 Vista 32-bit beta drivers
It looks as though i will also have to revert to the original drivers,my ppd has dropped dramatically from 7000 to 5500 so it looks as if they are no longer working.
I have not had a crash or any other problems just the drop in ppd.

I tried this driver and my success or lack thereof is in a thread by that title, but you may have better luck than I

I have only just changed over so i will let you know how it goes.
First thing i noticed is when desktop comes up from a re-boot it is ready to work faster than the other beta driver and where i got a very slight delay in changing screens that is back to normal.

Another thing I noticed is that my GPU seemed to run a lot cooler, noticeably cooler even OC'd 10 %

Re: GeForce ForceWare 185.20 Vista 32-bit beta drivers
As I thought last night, they released a new core sometime yesterday.
by ihaque on Tue Mar 24, 2009 9:31 pm
There was a bug in the core that interacted with some changed behavior in the 185.20 driver. The good news is that it doesn't appear that this particular error "contaminated" any runs; the effect here was that some results were simply not calculated (and therefore not returned), not that returned results were corrupt. Core execution was faster precisely because not all the calculations were done.
I've released an updated version (1.25) of the core that appears to fix the bug; your clients should automatically update when they get a new 59xx WU assigned, or you can manually force an update by stopping the client, deleting FahCore_14.exe, and restarting. Please reply to this thread if you still see the PPD "doubling" with the 1.25 core, as the core results are definitely missing some returned data under those conditions.
Thanks to mikeb12, Turnoz, and the F@h beta testers for helping me to unravel this issue.
