nVidia Help needed
Okay I need some nVidia help.
My home office computer has a nVidia FX5500 256MB Video card and a MSI KT6V (Via KT600 Chipset) and I'm having a weird problem.
Every once in a while (5-10 minutes) my screen goes blank for for a second and comes back on. I've been trying to get the system to stop doing this but with no luck. Here's what I've tried to resolve this:
- Undated the MSI Mobo BIOS to the latest
- Installed the latest VIA chipset WinXP drivers (I've tried other older versions too)
- Installed the latest nVidia drivers (I've tried other older version too)
This problem has been happening since I set this system up 3 months ago.
I had this problem on my wife's ASUS system with an ATI All-in-Wonder card, but various mucking around with the aforementioned drivers resolved this problem. It was a VIA chipset system too.
My MSI/VIA/nVidia system won't co-operate in the same way.
Anyone else had this problem?

hmmmmm, It could be a dbl loaded driver rock. Please right click on my computer......click on properties and go to device drivers.
Chances are in this case, there may be a driver loaded twice. If this is the case delete both and restart the computer. It will see the need for it and start a search for the right driver which I think may be on a disk at your pad right lol?
Oh ya.....GO BRONCOS!!!!!!

Thanks Dienamic...
It might very well be that DD problem, Dienamic. It could be the default Windows driver, and then I loaded the new drivers.
Does nVidia (or anyone else) have a cleaner program to remove all traces of ALL nVidia drivers and nVidia software?
And who told me it was ATI drivers that suck...yeah RIGHT!
