Nvidia Inspector and Nhancer question....

[Odie]

Okay, I admit it. I'm probably the last person on the planet to upgrade drivers. Yeah, I'm that guy. My video driver for my GeForce GTX 285 is the original
one that came with the box (Falcon Northwest) when I bought it 4 years ago. I play just a handful of games but it's predominantly a flightsim (FSX, FS2004)
platform.

I installed Nhancer when I found out about it and it's been working good with both FSX and FS2004. However, I picked up Diablo 3 and yep, the 4-year old
drivers just didn't cut it anymore so I held-my-breath and crossed my fingers and installed the latest drivers (296.xx). The PC rebooted and the sun still shone,
the birds still flew, and Diablo 3 looked a lot better. FSX not so much, but I remember Nvidia Inspector had taken the place of Nhancer for certain levels of
drivers.

I had read about Nvidia Inspector here and there, but I couldn't find out one thing:

Do I need to uninstall Nhancer before installing Inspector?

Nvidia Inspector is all you need these days.
Nhancer was for earlier Nvidia versions.

Thanks Paul....I'll de-install nHancer since it really won't come into play with the new drivers.

And that did the trick! FSX looking all nice with the new drivers!

Enhancer never worked with any nVidia drivers past the 185 series. The latest drivers for you card and nVidia Inspector is all you need. Uninstall Enhancer, it will do you no good.
