I have an Nvidia GeForce 4 Ti4200 graphics card that I always update the driver through Nvidia's site. I have the most current version installed now. When I go to windows update, it shows a driver update available for my Nvidia card.
Does anyone know which to use? Should I update through windows or Nvidia?
Thanks,
Bruce

My friend went to Nvidia for the latest and it was not signed when he installed it.

This put me off so I waited untill to day when update said it was there for down loading 11.8 mgs.

I installed it with out any prob and it was signed.

At fist glance when you check it out it appears to be lacking in tabs as before, but on closer inspection its all there and better.

"Hows about that then?"

I used the update from Microsuck, and Windoze Media Player stopped showing video. Rolled back my drivers and got video back. Then downloaded latest from nVidia and had no problems. I'll be sticking with nVidia for my driver updates in future.
