Inno3D MX440 & ECS K7VTA3 problems
Hi, can anyone help? I have been trying to upgrade my son`s PC, specs are as follows: AMD XP Athlon 1900 cpu ECS K7VTA3 mobo Inno3D MX(440)SE SDR 64 Mb AGP graphics card I did a clean install of Windows XP Home edition but found that the video driver has defaulted to something called "VGASAVE". I have installed the latest nvidia drivers for the Mx440, but am unable to get the card to work properly. I have tried various solutions as advised on the web, the last being to install the mobo drivers, something which I don`t normally do. The result has been that the OS has become corrupted and refuses to load! I will probably wipe the HDD and re-install WinXP, but what if the "VGASAVE" comes back! Any help much appreciated. Larry |

I encountered a similar problem with Nvidia, XP wanted to use its own default drivers and refused to relinquish control. Open System Properties, Hardware. I removed the video drivers I didn't want. Give that a go. Cheers, John I have tried various solutions as advised on the web, the last being to install the mobo drivers, something which I don`t normally do.
