Dear all,
Can't seem to find the right one for my system:

-P4 2.8GHz (Northwood)
-Albatron PX865P(E) - Chipset 848P (Springdale)
-GeForce 7600GS (512MB)

I have tried these with no luck:

Thanks in advance!

What hardware ID does your 7600GS show ?

258.96 is too new, I think they dropped 7000 series by then. Try 197.45

OK, will give it a shot. Thanks.

UPDATE:
That didn't work either. I wonder if there is something wrong with the card? It displays the BIOS text based and 8 color Windows 2000 gui justg fine however.
Very frustrating to say the least.

Techpowerup lists 93.71 as the latest Windows 2000 driver.

Don't know how accurate that is, but it's worth a shot. 😀

Sorry about the driver hotlink - Nvidia archive pages are broken heh.

It simply does not work with any of those drivers

Hmm the DEV_02E1 does link to 7600GS, and in the 93.71 driver:
NVIDIA_BR02.DEV_02E1.1 = "NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GS " so should theoretically work.
Do you know who marketed the vid card ? Maybe there was a custom driver for it to match the subsys #....
