Are legacy NVIDIA drivers not kept on NVIDIA's website anymore? I get a 404 when I try to download any of the legacy stuff. Also hello everyone I am new here 😀

How legacy we talking?

Phil's Computer Lab has a ton of drivers going pretty far back. Donno how he found them, but I'm glad he did. Most complete and easy to acquire collection I've found anywhere.

I've actually been having a really hard time finding Riva 128 driver packages lately. Seems you are lucky to find a mirror of the latest reference, and that's absolutely it.

Win98 - K6-2+ 500, GF2 MX, SB AWE 64 CT4500, SBLive CT4780
Win98 - Pentium III 1000, GF2 GTS, SBLive CT4760
WinXP - Athlon 64 3200+, GF 7800 GS, Audigy 2 ZS

Someone (here?) mentioned that they recently observed Nvidia issuing takedown requests for old driver packs being uploaded to archive.org - if true, while they are within their rights to do so, I can't begin to explain how wrong headed this is.

In fact, I find it hard to believe they're really doing this. Anyone know any more?

I have a Geforce3 Ti200. I was just curious why NVIDIA 's website allows you to select the legacy option when looking for drivers if the files aren't there.
