If you're using the ones intended specifically for Far Cry 2, that'll do it. I installed those, didn't get an appreciable boost in FPS, then tried playing TF2 and got really crappy framerate (and this is on a SLI 8800GT setup). Reverted to the previous betas and the problems went away. Really, "latest drivers" hardly ever equates to "greater performance," at least when it comes to nVidia. More often than not, it just means "more problems." -- "There is much pleasure to be gained from useless knowledge." - Bertrand Russell
