Default NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440 with AGP8X

Hi,

I use the NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440 with AGP8X.

Has anyone faced the "Catastrophic failure" when
trying to check the "Properties" of Settings from
the Desktop? I wonder what it is about?

Nothing particularly dramatic happened but
the announcement is pretty scary...;-)

not only the same problems here but also stripes when the restart
window appears and very poor graphics when playing Pinball Adventure

although the ssttings problem disappeared when installing the NVidia
52.16 drivers the other problems stayed

is there anyone who knows the correct driving value for my Asus A7N8X-X
mobo ?

I have the same problem on two different PCs
and two different main boards.
The first one mentioned below is occurring under Win XP Pro
and SuperMicro m/b P6SBU.

The other on Win 2K and on the Medion 2001 m/b.
NVIDIA on this PC is GeForce2MX/Mx400

Strange enough both display work ok, but
are recording this catastrophic failure...
I'm lost...

Yeah it's just a driver problem.... you should get your own-brand's driver!
Mines is MSI.... www.msi.com.tw

there's a new driver out, i think it's 52.14 - not 'new' but a new modified
msi version... gets rid of the catastrophic failure thing!

If you feel you'd rather jst go back, 45.xx etc is available at
www.guru3d.com

Hope that helps....
