Malisk Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 ^^ I suspect that changelog is including the December release changes. The re-release was to fix a bug with direct access to the monitor settings within the nvidia control panel. *Removed the Direct Access functionality from the driver user interface. Looks to me like there was just this change in this February release. I will so not bother to download this one for that fix. :) What was nVidia's problem calling this 81.99? :rolleyes: "Re-release" a driver over a month later without changing the version. Clever. It will never confuse, nVidia. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/430167-driver-nvidia-8198-whql/page/2/#findComment-587173783 Share on other sites More sharing options...
