Here's a new set of Forceware Drivers in the shape of 97.02 WHQL for Windows XP/Media Center Edition!

Release Highlights:
Adds support for GeForce 8800 GTX and GeForce 8800 GTS GPUs.

Improved spatial-temporal de-interlacing algorithm (for standard and high definition content). Includes the new NVIDIA Control Panel. Microsoft® DirectX® 9.0c and OpenGL® 2.0 support For a full list of fixed and known issues please view the Release Notes.

TweaksRUs has nVidia's Forceware 97.02, with compatability mods, up for download. Mirrors @ Guru 3D
Use NVTray provides some extra quality tweaks that both the default NVIDIA tray icon and control panel are lacking. I especially wanted to be able to select more Antialiasing modes, as well as OpenGL and Direct3D options right from the tray icon. Also, the utility is able to run automatically at startup thus making it a bit easier to change my settings before playing a game or running a benchmark. This program requires .NET Framework 2.0 to support a broader range of systems.
Please leave your performance results in the comments and tell us all how they work.
