Angry Latest Nvidia update

This is kinda a question and a Caution:

I ahve an Nvidia GeForce 2 MX 400 card, that has always run BC brilliantly. I recently installed the new Update for the card from the Nvidia site, and suddenly, NO MORE GLOWS!

Has anyone else had this problem, or does anyone know how to fix it?

I've tried re-installing BC, no luck though. This is an update, so i don't know why it messed up.

My adivce would be, stear clear for the moment of the new update, and my question would be, HELP!!!!

Thanks, and Belated Happy Holidays to all!!

For Bridge Commander, I reccomend 30.82, it seems to be the most stable for the game. It's one of the official release ones, shouldn't be hard to get hold of. Or try 40.41 (beta), that's a very good set of drivers.

I havn't had any problems with this driver. In fact, it's improved performance for me. All glows work and everything. I have the same card as you, so I don't know whats up there.

As I remember enhanced glows are off by default when you install the game, might be worth checking your in-game graphics settings?.

Only use the WHQL versions of NVidia drivers, I've had no end of problems with the others.

If you've installed a version of the driver that doesn't work, then just roll it back to an earlier version.
