i tried cat 3.7 and 3.8 drivers and now i have the latest omega driver, but the game keeps crashing. I tried to switch fastwrite off in smartgart, but it automatically turns back to 4x. dunno how to turn fastwrite off in bios though. ( dfi ns-80 mobo) also i noticed an enormous increase of my sys temp. (sometimes 10 C!) is this normal? should i go back to cat 3.6 driver?.... or just try other settings (if so which). TnX.. NoCLuE
