I too am using the 169.04 drivers on 32 bit Vista.

I just started playing Gears of War without too many problems. People are having heaps of issues with the game, and apparently Epic Games isn't recommending the 169.04 forceware, but I seem to be going pretty smoothly.

My game kept crashing about 30 seconds upon startup in the menu of the game. Strangely, all I had to do was start the game by right clicking on the Startup Icon for the game and clicks "run as administrator" even though I am logged on as administrator... Works like a charm now.

well they have never official drivers avaiable now.
when i ran 3dmark...my score dropped quiet abit with the new official drivers.

Are you gonna revert back to the previous driver set?

 

[krazyq]

well when i had the 169.04 my 3dmark score was 13,3XX
now with these new drivers its 13,0xx
Im gonna play some games like gears of war, cod4 and see if it has improved gameplay
