why so big?

[Pedro_The_Swift]

went to download the latest Nvidea vid card driver this morning and nearly fell over,,
87mg!!!

why are they so big?

[Blknight.aus]

that would be the full install pack with all the bells and whistles demo programs instructions in every language known to man and all the assosciated bloat that comes with a windows installer.

Yep it probaly comes with gui management tools... blah blah blah...

The actual driver itself is probably tiny.

the nvidia driver download is actually a driver "pack" it includes all the drivers for all the current models of card and all supported operating systems I guess its easier to choose wich driver to download when there are only a few options.
