    I am experiencing slow screen refresh rates with other apps outside of
    SW and running Win XPP SP2. This has just lately become a problem. I
    am looking to try the latest graphics driver compatible with SW, but I
    get conflicting info on nVidia and Solidworks sites. nVidia shows
    the latest certified drivers as 84.26 and the latest (uncertified ?)
    driver as 162.65, while SW shows the latest as 6.14.11.62.65. Is the
    6.14.11.62.65 a vNivdia 162.65 that has been tweaked? Which is the
    best to use for overall system performance? TIA

    Always use the Solidworks driver at the solidworks site, that way,
    they, (Solidworks), have one less thing to blame on the user, for
    their crappy software not working!. :)))))))

    We tested it, PROMISE!, smell the bullshit!

    The 162.65 driver is another name for the 6.14.11.62.65 driver.
    I use currently the 6.14.11.6947 (169.47) for my FX1700 card, because
    I did have some issues with the "official" drivers.
    You can just install newer or older drivers and try it for yourself
    what driver works the best.
