I kind of get what your saying. I have many O/S, on several hard drives and they all seem to work just fine with the drivers from SP2, for the most part. But, we all want to see improvements to 3D Mark scores and game play, so we download the latest drivers to find issues associated with installing them, or uninstalling the old ones. I always thought it was virus this and spyware that. Hell Im more afraid of drivers than I am of a virus, just stay away from girlsonthefarm.com (I hope that's not a web site) The fact of the matter is, Motherboards are streaming out of Taiwan with so many different components, SATA, IDE, AGP, PCI-E, RAID this, RAID that, nVidia chips, VIA chips, on and on. Makes it difficult to know what system drivers will cause problems with a particular configuration. My point is that a driver can cause bad things to happen. My DFI MOBO ships with a CD-ROM full of drivers. Funny thing is, NVIDIA will try and load 5 of them by default resulting in BSOD. NVIDIA SMBus Driver(GOOD) NVIDIA Ethernet Driver(GOOD) NVIDIA IDE Driver(BAD) NVIDIA Audio Driver(BAD) NVIDIA Firewall(BAD) NVIDIA NTUNE(BAD) 2 out of 6 RUN AWAY, RUN AWAY.
