usually i only install video driver that has WHQL logo with my nvidia card,
then i bought a ati card, ati updates their driver so fast, ive experanced few problems with the new drivers before, their driver is like beta stuff.

when the new driver comes out, how can i know if it has WHQL or not?

thanks
