HERES ONE FOR YOU ALL?
sorry I forgot to mention when I upgraded my card I also upgraded all my
system so a fresh install of windows xp went on the machine, so they only video card drivers that went on the machine where the 44.03 drivers from the cd disk I got with the card Dave "User" wrote in message ... I used a utility called Nasty File Remover to remove all my old Nvidia drivers before upgrading and it did a reasonable job except that the display driver "nv4_disp.dll" for some reason windows would keep reinserting it in the windows\system32 and windows\system32\dllcache folder so I booted an old windows98 floppy to manually delete these files. Try uninstalling your current driver then booting to dos to remove this file from these two directories.

When I put the disk I got with the video card back in the drive and install the drivers back on the machine (44.03) hey presto back to normal colours and res. Of course 5-6 days later guess what happens. Windows says there are no conflicts of any card and I also have changed the irq settings in the bios to various numbers instead of all auto. What I need to know is it the video card drivers or the video card got a problem. I also exit the Nview icon in the sys tray but this surely shouldn't make a difference as the machine still runs and boot afterwards. Any one else had this problem or anyone give me some advise. My specs if they help are win xp pro 768mb ddr ram 2 x 40 gig hard drives gigabyte ga 7n400l1 mobo with up to date bios fa 6 inno 3d geforce fx 5600 128mb cheers dave |

Haven't quite figured out how it works, or why, but it is a real pain in the arse. |
