For the TI4200 use the 56.55 drivers from Gainward. The driver is a early
release from Nvidia and produces excellent results both in graphic quality
and speed.

the display either freezes immediately or sections of the graphics are

displayed, with funny stripes where textures should be.

I have run DXdiag which reports no problem, reinstalled my Nvidia
drivers,
reinstalled Direct X 9.0b and reinstalled my FPS games, all with no
luck. I
have installed the Nvidia drivers which were rock solid previously, to
no
avail.

You might want to try the nVidia 45.23 drivers. The 53.04 did not work
as well with my Ti-4200 as the older set. DirectX 9.0b is not an issue.

If you search the internet for Powerstrip, download, and install it, you
can get detailled information on your video card from the
Options/AdapterInformation utility. This will tell you whether you have
assigned an IRQ for the card, whether the AGP system is engaged, and
what the Ti-4200 clock settings are. You do need to assign an IRQ to the
card from the BIOS for this card.

Chances are good that the card has been damaged perhaps by overclocking.
