Just wondering if anyone has had problems with the latest Nvidia drivers and GWs? I have a Geforce 7900GT and I kept getting graphical glitches and distortions in the game. I finally fixed it by going back 3 driver versions to the 84.21_forceware drivers. I would like to use the latest drivers though without any problems, any ideas about this type of issue?

Is your card overclocked?

It is a little out of the box, but I haven't overclocked it any higher.

Well you could always try to put it back to factory settings or even underclock.

Obviously there are problems with the latest drivers,his card and guild wars. I'm on a 6800GS using the 84.21's, game runs fine also. If it aint broke don't fix it.

Agree with Jebus. When I tried to OC my older Nvidia card using the safe settings the nvidia driver figured out (built in to the driver), I had odd glitches in GW with graphics.

The Factor locked OC / tested card I own now works fine w/o any issues (7600) with the current drivers. No overclocking on my part.

my antialias x2 does not work properly on my geforce fx5500 PCI. it stretches everything horizontally, making everything so stretched that half of it is off the screen. antialias x4 works normally, however.

this had been an issue for the past few driver updates, and i can't seem to find one that works normally for me.

I've got a 6800 with the latest drivers and have not experienced any problems.

Here I'll show you what it looks like and these are with the older drivers so using those don't fix the problem after all.
