53.03 Lost nVidia Settings Tab
Now that I've installed the 53.03s, I no longer have an nVidia
settings tab under Display Properties-Settings-Advanced. I went into safe mode, removed all traces of nVidia remnants and reinstalled. Same problem. I tried installing an older driver, no tab there now either. It must be a conflict somewhere I guess...or I'm installing it wrong. Any advice and can someone tell me their installation/upgrade procedure? XP Pro GeForce TI4600 C.Bob |

Any advice and can someone tell me their installation/upgrade procedure? XP Pro GeForce TI4600 I have the very same config as yours, and my Nvidia tab is well in place. Try to restore your system to the nearest point after you installed the driver. -- Merci d'enlever le-munster-du-frigo pour me répondre par mail. ICQ 248572128 |
Exactly the same problem he no nvidia tab at all (with all bells and
whistles) after upgrading from 42.70 to 53.03. I even thought that I had reverted back to the standard microsoft drivers!! but after checking the version, I'm in 5.3.0.3. Any idea?

Well, I have the settings tab now, but it's only after installing the
45.23s. I guess I just can't support the latest drivers. May be something with the card BIOS not being compatible with the driver. Who knows. C.Bob "SkyFoxXP" wrote in message ...

Unless you have a Via MB chip-set of course......... :-( :-( More like residual junk from 45.23 or even a previous installation. Go to www.guru3d.com and select a driver removal utility then try 53.03 again, assuming that you are using WinXP. Otherwise 53.04. John Lewis "SkyFoxXP" wrote in message ...

From NVidia Tech Support (less than 24 hours later...cool):
We recommend that you not use the newer nvidia base drivers. Their design more for their newer FX series of cards. Please go to www.driverheaven.net/cleaner this is a program that will remove entry from the registry. Please run this to help correct the problem your having. Afterwards, go to www.visiontek.com click drivers and scroll down till you see Release 25, Version 30.82 This should help you out . This worked BTW, but I used 45.23 instead.

hehe, so much for unified drivers.

Was this from "nvidia" tech support, or from visiontek? Nvidia's pitch is
that their drivers are unified -- meaning they're intended for all previous GF cards. It seems odd that nvidia would recommend a specific release from the visiontek site. The problem, by the way, is actually not uncommon, and it just seems to strike randomly once in a while. I had this happen recently with my GF4 Ti4600, and the thing that finally solved it was going to an even NEWER driver release, not an older one. Larry "Bob Orton" wrote in message m...
