Hi

Is there a way to use old ConfigOverrides.xml after a video card driver upgrade?

I've made a backup copy of my ConfigOverrides.xml but how do I trick CFS3 to use it after the driver upgrade?

I tried everything I can think of without success. :blind:

Any ideas please?

Cheers
 
There is, yes, but I can't remember which line it is that validates your card/drivers. If you use WinMerge, you'll be able to compare the two files, new and old, easily, and work out where it is. I suspect it's these lines near the top -

<VendorId val="4318"/>
<DeviceId val="737"/>
<VersionNumberLowPart val="852110"/>
<VersionNumberHighPart val="393230"/>

Worth a try, anyway!
 
Hi

I've tested now and it's this value in ConfigOverrides.xml that should be changed after a driver update:

<VersionNumberLowPart val="662509"/>

It worked perfectly!

:ernae:

Cheers
