Default Help in locating a driver - nVidia TNT Riva

I have been scouring the 'net looking for the latest driver for this older videocard. The videocard is from a pre-built system made by Hewlett Packard, an HP Pavilion 8565.

The card is an nVidia TNT Riva with 8mb RAM. It's current driver version is 5.1.2001.0

The driver should be compatible with WinXP Pro.

Thanks!

Check these. There brand specific for MSI so maybe if you check for whatever brand your card is then you might find them.

The videocard appears to be integrated into the mobo. The mobo is an Asus P2B-VT (Kestral). The chipsets are made by VIA if that helps any. I have the CPU-Z, Everest and Sandra reports if you guys need them.

I could only find a driver update for Windows ME, nothing for XP Pro. However I believe you can install the latest drivers from the NVIDIA website and be fine



INTEL QX9650 // Gigabyte EP45 Extreme // 8GB PC2-8500 // BFG GTX260 MaxCore // DD Torture Rack // Seagate 750GB HDD // OCZ Vendetta // PC Power & Cooling 620W PSU

Ironically, that is what I am quickly finding out as well. I have visted numerous sites and have pretty much found out the same thing. And to think that the tech support people I spoke with through HP didn't have a fukkin' clue (as usual) what they were talking about.

Capper, can you be kind enough to link that driver you found, please?
