Im stuck .. GeForce4 MX440
Hi,
I'm using aPC with GF4MX440 without any probems and a while back had to upgrade my son's PC. I also choose a GF4MX440 and installed in a prefectly working system with WIN98SE, AX34 MB and Celeron 733 CPU. after installing the videocard the system became unstable and crached after 30 minutes at most. The monitor just switched to standby and a reboot was the only solution to get back to work. I then re-installed WIN98 (after a format C. Everything went smooth untill I installed the 45.23 drivers. After rebooting the sctreen went blank (standby) and nothing worked (even a blind ALT-F4 did nothing, so i suspect a total lockup). I 'uninstalled' the videocard in safe mode and rebooted and tried the drivers of my Gainward card, same problem, the I tried a CD with drivers from Spranke, same again. Then, after a format I tried WIN200. The 3 different drivers again made the system lock up after rebooting. I checked the memory (2*128 and 1*64) and found nothing wrong, I changed the PSU... no difference. I tried with and without the 4in1 VIA drivers... I'm stuck and out of ideas on what could be wrong. One thing is for sure, everything works until the NVidia drivers are installed. What bothers me most is that the 733 is my old system which I used succesfully with the GF4MX440 BTW, I switched the cards between both systems and the newest card is now happily working in my PC... Any ideas??
