*bump* since i see so many people still posting about Nvidia Crashes
Saucy
hrmm, lemmie look for the location of the XP mod folder i'll get right back to ya C:\Documents and Settings\"you user name here"\Local Settings\Application Data\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods According to another post i found anyway, i've been running vista since it came out
http://downloads.guru3d.com/Forceware-173.65-Vista-beta-(32-bit)-download-1846.html may wanna try installing those, they seem to fix the display driver crashing problem
If you're using vista, it's located in a hidden folder, so you'll have to enable those by first returning to classic folder mode, then Tools-->Folder Options, Click th View Tab then "show hidden files and folders" after that it's C:\Users\[user_name]\AppData\Local\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods
i've looked around some saw lots of posts for x86 beta drivers that stop the dreaded black screen but i finally found some for Vista x64 http://downloads.guru3d.com/ForceWare-171.16-Vista-beta-(64-bit)-download-1839.html SLI and DV both seem to work with these drivers unlike some of the higher revisions that i've seen around
