sometimes the latest drivers arent good for a perticular application. I remeber I had to go back a couple of revs on the video driver to make my gforce mx440 card to work you might try to unistall the latest and install a back rev or 2. I am running a ATI card and I cant run the latest drivers because it mess's up the video when I switch between the TV and PC so I am useing the previous version.

here is a link to the older versions of the drivers for nvidia
xp/2000 http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp-2k_archive.html
98/me/95 http://www.nvidia.com/object/win9x_archive.html

hope this helps

Are you installing the drivers over the existing drivers...or deleting the previous driver and then doing a fresh install?

Especially when going to a previous driver...it's most important to remove all traces of any driver to begin with then do a clean install of the driver you wish to use. If you don't do this...you could be mixing components of two different driver sets.

if it does work, good

If it doesn't, try either a V-card Switcharoo or a system wipe. Only Wipe your system in a worst case senario.
