Where is WinXP support? I don’t see it listed in that string…
DiskID1 = “NVIDIA Windows Vista / 7 / 8 (64 bit) Driver Library Installation Disk 1″
XP has its own installer
the above is from the Vista/Win7 x64 drivers
meh, this is just another Release 260 branch pos with broken CL Julia.
yep I don’t understand why they don’t manage to put a fixed version of OpenCL clBuildProgram on their driver…
Is it only Julia test that broken?
For me it seems all the OpenCL tests are broken .
@JEskandari: yep you’re right, I haven’t tested the other OpenCL demos but they are all broken. Crappy driver!
Someone else can confirm that regression?
@JeGX…yup..all the demos are crashing for me..i didnt test until now :/
back to the 263.06 dev driver for me i think
that driver is for quadro… Fucking look before you download…
this one seems to have support for sli mosaic!!
@labeled: you should read before you post!
the first sentance says its intended for quadro
I re-checked and all OpenCL crashed on GTX465 as well.
The drivers with broken clbuildprogram crash in nvcompiler.dll,this one crashes in nvcuda.dll calling clGetPlatformInfo

Hello, everyone. I have a question and i hope someone can answer, I have a dell m90 with an nvidia quadro fx2500m and it seems that does not support opengl 3 or 4, does anyone has a way to fix this, I already tried updating the driver from dell, but its the same.
Thank yuo
