We have seen the new Detonator 51.75 and had some info about it online a couple of hours ago coming from 3DChipset.com, but it seems that this one has been leaked on the net. We have had a little conversation a few minutes ago with nVidias PR Manager Europe Andrew Humber and you can read the story by clicking read more...

After receiving some emails from Andrew (European PR Manager for nVidia), we decided to pull down the Detonator 51.75 driver because this driver is not ready to go and is absolutely not ready to be installed on any machine yet. Andrew doesnt know exactly where its coming from, but nVidia released this driver to some hard- and software firms just for testing purposes, since theyve changed some interesting things for the 50.xx driver series.

Some of the release notes for this driver that were floating around the net are just a fake and have nothing to offer current nVidia card based owners.

Andrew also told us that nVidia has made some improvements in the new Detonators 50.xx series, including some enhancements to nView.

All in all, we can say that after a little talk we agree with nVidia to remove the driver and to make our visitors aware of the fact that this release is not official and also not allowed yet by nVidia.

Thanks to Andrew Humber from nVidia for the info!
