Difference MSI and NVIDIA-generic driver?
What is the difference in drivers provided by MSI and by NVIDIA?
Version seems to be similar (44.03), but MSI driver is a little bit thicker... (18,8 Mb to 22,5 Mb). Is it possible to install MSI driver over existing Nvidia generic driver? (MSI Geforce 4800SE, model MS-8894) -- Best regards/ MfG, Gustav Medler |

(18,8 Mb to 22,5 Mb). Do not know for sure but it'll probably have some "advertising pictures" in it from MSI (logos and stuff), and it may have some goodies, like an extra systray icon for configuration (this is the case with Asus). But usually, drivers from the different brands have built in them the generic drivers but have a very small risk of being a little bit "buggier", allthought that would not keep me from using them. Is it possible to install MSI driver over existing Nvidia generic driver? Yes, if You first UNinstall the NVidia driver. This is always necessary if You change drivers! Greetings, René |
