So as many of you know, DX8 is kinda messed up with all the white annoying lines that flash a lot in-game and the only way to fix it is by setting your video card drivers to 306.97. The thing is, it is really annoying to be updating the drivers every day because I don't know how to fully don't let my Nvidia control panel to not automatically update to the latest drivers since right not the game is fucked at dx8 after the driver update 306.97. If you know how, would appreciate tons.

Thanks!

try updating to the beta driver, it fixed it completely for me: http://www.geforce.com/drivers/results/61261

if you don't want to try these, you can go into the control panel > help > updates > disable auto updating.

320.00 BETAs only correct the DX8 problem for Kepler GK10x GPUs a.k.a. the GeForce 600 series. They don't fix the issue for Fermi GF10x/11x a.k.a. GeForce 400/500 GPUs, so you need to stay on 306.97 and disable NVIDIA update as well as fully automatic Windows Updates (choose download and notify when updates are ready, not download and automatically inatall).

I told nvidia about the bug a couple weeks back and submitting my computer information, and it seems anybody on the 600's series. So maybe if more people from each series submits their computer information it will be fixed.

Dangit, I was hoping it'll work for my Asus G55 Laptop. (Currently running with a GeForce 660 :_:

That's a 600's series. It works from what I can tell.

The generic notebook version of the drivers doesn't work for you? http://www.geforce.com/drivers/results/62483

There is a brand new 320.14 BETA driver as of today, by the way. This is the desktop version: http://www.geforce.com/drivers/results/62479

Going to control panel>system and security>windows update>change settings and under "important updates" and choosing "check for updates but let me choose whether to download or install them" fixed it for me.
