You MUST uninstall previous drivers and I would also recommend using NFR
(nasty file remover) too before installing. Any remnants of previous drivers
can cause you trouble with these.

Perhaps for you, but it worked great for me. Did an uninstall and cleanup,
then installed and works great. Better graphics and speed.

Ed, I did a reformat and rinstall of WinXP yesterday, and installed the
52.16 drivers. It was just the basic drivers from MS that were running up
until that point. I didn't uninstall the others, because XP generally
handles that pretty well. But I had nasty results. Should I have gotten rid
of the MS drivers?
Thans!

BB,
In general, most NV drivers will install over the generic WXP drivers
without a problem. You might try doing an uninstall, run Nasty File Remover
from www.guru3d.com before you do a reboot, then try installing them. I have
had good results with the 52.16s myself. I always uninstall and use NFR
before changing drivers and have never had any really bad experiences
changing drivers. One way to make sure your driver install is clean is to
cancel the XP driver dialog that pops up on the reboot and not let XP do
its' thing......

I tried to use NFR but my Windows 2000 had backup files in the
C:\WINNT\system32\dllcache folder which prevented the removal of the Windows
default nv4.dll files. There are several Nvidia files on my system. I also
wasn't able to swap the NV driver for a standard driver in Device Manager.
However I did get 52.16 installed with no problems. Any suggestions for
NFR?
