Unfortunately no.

The game has it's own detection mechanism that is not user modifiable.

The last driver I got new was a 12 degree senior flex square-head...err... OHHHH!!! VIDEO drivers! You guys are talking about VIDEO drivers. Well, that's different!

I have a Radeon 5770 running driver version 8.821.0.0 from January of last year. I have ZERO problems with it and have had perfect performance ingame since day one with it. I have no reason to update my driver, so it's staying the way it is.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it, y'know.

BTW, I have an Intel i5 quad core 3.2 running 8 gigs of memory and Win7-64bit. It's run CoH like a dream since the day I bought it.


That is all.

I just installed the latest Nvidia 296.10 WHQL driver and am very pleased.

I would like to use this, but neither of them properly install. The only thing that installs is the uninstall file, startup icon, and desktop icon.

i just read your post...what i've been doing when installing new nvidia drivers is to run it as a clean install, then let the software restart my system...yes, you will have to go through the angst of resetting your video settings...but when i do it that way, i end up with the latest drivers installed, a better knowledge of the latest bells and whistles the software provides, and CoH giving me the go-ahead to play. on a side-note, if you are needing the latest drivers for your 9500 and you are running win7x64, you can get them here...http://www.geforce.com/drivers/results/44967...oh and before i forget...your image is too cool.
