Anyone use softquadro on a nvidia geforce4 440 go card

I as wondering if anyone has used softquadro on their card yet and do you
see any performance increases or problems.

 

What laptop are you using? I tried it on a Dell Latitude C840 with a 440go
and had problems with softquadro - mostly due to not having the correct
Nvidia drivers - I only have a 56k modem, so downloading different drivers
is a drag. There are a heap of posts on this - most useful is Mike Wilson's
stuff - some of it at:
http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=...seekm=#link6

do a search in this newsgroup and there are a heap of gems.
Also try this link - it seems to be a slightly different approach - I
haven't tried it, but best of luck!

I use the bog standard 440go without too many problems - it doesn't like
driving twin screens with Solidworks (no problems with anything else, even
at 1600x1200 (essential with Flash and dreamweaver - how many windows!!)).
There seems to be some interference with one programme (I think it is a fax
driver) that seems to make things freeze up in sketches after a while - this
doesn't seem to have any correlation to the number of windows open, so I
don't think it is a display problem. I would reccomend running with the
440go drivers and only start fiddling with Softquadro if you find problems
with display speed slowing down with a lot of windows open (apparently it is
around 12-15, depending on resolution) - it can swallow inordinate amounts
of time getting the right combination of driver version and testing it to
make sure it isn't going to keel over half way through your rush project.
Let me know how you get on. I run fairly complicated (not many parts, put
complicated surface intersect info) models on the laptop with not too much
grief (1gb of RAM, 1.9Ghz P4M) - far better than my old workstation, but
can't wait to get my new workstation next month!
Best of luck
