    so i got the original verde 285.62

    i dont think i will use the dell driver, because the nvidia driver runs perfect as it is

    i cant imagine that the dell ppl added anything, they prolly just took the driver from nvidia and put it on their homepage

    This is the Fourth Thread of the same topic now. Even it came from Dell, but like gamba66 said, I also dont think Dell would change anything though.

    Because you don't have to get the modded inf. file for the official dell drivers.

    But for all 285 series, you do not need the modded .inf file though, I can install both the 285.38 Beta and the 285.62 from the NVIDIA website without the need of the modded .inf.
