I just checked the Asus site and it seems they have some new (?) nForce2 drivers available? I've been out a while so don't flame me if these are actually already dated from the stone age. ;)
The package is called nf2v112_wxp.zip (or any other ms OS still supported) and here's the info:

Audio driver 2.96
Audio utilities 2.97
Network driver 2.81 (WHQL'd)
GART driver 2.78 (WHQL'd)
SMBus driver 2.75 (WHQL'd)
Memory controller driver 2.75 (WHQL'd)
IDE driver 2.70 In The Box
IDE driver 2.97 Full Driver
Installer 2.97
2.96 & 2.97 looks newer than everything else i've seen lately, but then again...

I still don't get the naming scheme though. Asus originally had 2.xx (if i'm correct) drivers for their nForce1, nVidia has 1.13 as official nForce drivers, so what's this v112 deal? Oh well... Can anyone comment on these drivers? I'm preparing to install them on my A7N266-C now, will get back on performance later on. If anyone has a hold of an even more recent set of drivers, please let me know. :)

Oh, i almost forgot, you can find them here (ftp://ftp.asus.com.tw/pub/ASUS/misc/utils/nf2/). :)

Well unfortunately, mine is somewhat broken... USB ports don't work properly and my computer crashes (black screen of death, yes and i do say black) once and a while during heavy gaming.
I think it's more hardware related than software though, so drivers won't really fix my problems, but at least i might get some more juice out of it while i wait for a non-Asus nForce2 board. ;) Not that i don't like Asus, but i've had 2 Asus mobo's in the past, it's time for a change.
