Installing older 43.45 display drivers
I just bought the X3d stereo viewer and X3d told me I had to use the 43.45
display drivers to get it to work. ( FX 5700 Ultra) I have tried for three days to get these drivers to install and have had no luck. I know how to install drivers and I have no trouble installing the latest drivers, they go on without any trouble at all. I called Nivida and talked to them for an hour and they said I was installing the drivers correctly. Nivida also said they had trouble installing the older drivers. I am just about to give up on the 43.45 drivers. Can anybody here help with this problem? Max Harrell |

I presume you are using XP. There is a utility at GURU3d.com that will allow
you to completely remove all trace of "OLD" drivers. Go there and get Detonator RIP. It works. Now,if you're not using XP,then do the same for 98 or ME. After rebooting,install the older drivers- the newer versions may have been conflicting with older DLLs or something. Try that anyway...see how ya go PAUL "Protozoa" wrote in message ...

I go thru the normal install and everything seems ok, but when reboot the old drivers are still in place. I can go back to the orginal drivers with the CD that came with my fx5700 and can go tho the latest drivers. I just can't go to the 40 series drivers. Max |

"Me" wrote in message ... Use a driver removal tool such as "Detonator Destroyer" pr "Nasty File Remover" to remove all traces of the current drivers. Restart. If asked to provide a location to drivers after the restart say "No" or "Cancel". Then install 45.23 drivers. To use 3D Stereo you will also need to install the 45.23 Stereo drivers. At present these are the latest that support 3D glasses. The VGA drivers and the 3D stereo drivers are 2 separate packages. http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp-2k_45.23.html http://www.nvidia.com/object/3dstereo_45.23 http://www.guru3d.com/detonator-destroyer/ http://www.majorgeeks.com/download3233.html http://www.guru3d.com/stereo/ http://www.guru3d.com/forum/forumdis...?s=&forumid=45 I talked to Nvidia this morning and they told me that my FX 5700 Ultra would not work with the curent stereo drivers and that I would have to wait a while. I ask when they would be out and they said they do not know. I guess I will just have to send my X3D system back and reorder when the drivers are ready. Max |
