I'm looking for a driver that'll best fit the following criteria:

- lower memory footprint (ie. not the 18MB jobbies!)
- hasn't had reports/rumours of "cheat"* optimisations
- reliable, good performer

I'm using Win2k, AGP 4x system. The card is a Creative Labs GeForce 4 Ti4200 64MB.

* - no benchmark cheats, no performance at the expense of quality cheats that you can't configure.

I use the Nvidia driver sets as the Creative ones are quite bloated and I don't install the Creative software at all. Currently I'm using the v45.23 driver set, but I've got a sneaking suspicion that Quake 3 has subtlely lost some image quality, and I've checked driver settings and Q3 settings, and they're all fine. It could just be me, particularly as I've been playing Jedi Academy (as it's far newer/more complex/good-looking than Q3), but I'm not sure.

I like the colour correction stuff in v45.23, but I can revert to my previous colour correction solution if need be.

I'm very fond of the 1.4523a Omega driver, which solved some recent issues with the standard driver that was causing screen corruption, and jerkiness when playing games. It's worth checking out.
