Hi, does anyone have a driver that's newer than 5/14/1999? I've searched around google but I couldn't find anything newer than that.

A small update - I managed to find a driver that's 2 years newer than the one I have but guess what - it doesn't work, despite being the same exact chip. Apparently the one and only driver available for my laptop - Toshiba Satellite 4080XCDT is specifically made for this exact laptop and no other driver will work with it.

Hey, thanks! This driver is much better than the one I had! The framerate in some games is slightly higher now, there's less texture corruption and the whole system didn't crash during stress test! Thanks again! It actually broke some of the games while it improved other ones.

You are welcome!

Interesting what games are you tested?

Had to roll back to my old driver actually, as new problems arrived in games that previously didn't have any 😒

I tested these:
Urban Assault - Menu flicker with "new" driver
Monster Truck Madness 2 - no changes
Terminator: SkyNET - Runs too fast with "new" driver
3DMark 99 MAX - Some models have textures with "new" driver, around 1 to 2 fps improvement
Final Reality - 1 to 2 FPS improvement, didn't crash during credits

Basically - the new driver improved some things but broke what wasn't broken before 😒
Kinda sucks that this little chip has potential, just no good drivers.
