I'm not even sure yet if it affects Geforce8 users or not. But if you want you can try that out. What games have you got that you are able to test? Honestly I have no ideas exactly which games are affected but it's not all games. RE4 for example despite being a very GPU depending game, it still wasn't affected by this bug it seems.

However if you suspect the game runs slower than normal (compare how your other games runs like) you can try and do the from window mode to fullscreen and back to window mode swapping to see if you get more FPS or not, if you get more FPS then it means you're affected by it and going back to an older driver would fix this. But for Geforce8 owners it's a bit trickier as I'm not sure if they work correctly with older drivers like 94.20. But it may well be the difference in the architecture how the cards are built like, that could possibly not cause this bug on these cards.

However NVIDA is working on a 8800 series texture management bug. Some users have found out that in some PC games, by alt+tab'ing and going back to the game again, provides a HUGE FPS increase and hopefully this is also related to the problem I'm experiencing in PCSX2 with the newer drivers. It sounds plausible at least.
