Dear Dennis,
Thanks for you prompt reply to my earlier querrie.
I download nvidia's newest driver, (one driver for all their
current hardware, pretty cool). My screen test score went up
but only 25% or so. If I were to "test it myself," what type
of test did you have in mind, for doublechecking screentest?
If anyone out there runs an nvidia geforce 256 ddr, what
score do you get from screentest?
Also, if you too get these bad scores, look into upgrading.
Here's my old and new screentest results after upgrading to
the latest driver (dated Aug 7, 2002).
