black screen lockup when installing drivers
Hi
I'm getting a problem with driver install. The screen dips black, comes back to the install progress bar, then goes completely black and the KB stops responding. Can anyone give me a clue what might be wrong? (or ask me for more relevent information about the problem?) thanks |

black screen lockup when installing drivers
I don't know what it is but I had the same, I restarted the PC and
re-installed and it's been fine since. Andi. "Marnok.com" wrote in message ... Hi I'm getting a problem with driver install.

black screen lockup when installing drivers
OK I'll keep trying, so far it's loaded thanks to the disk which came with
it and an update from an old version of the drivers I found... but... it still locks up sometimes. The card was working fine until I reinstalled windows... I probably need some sort of burn-in test for the card to figure out exactly where the problem lies. "Andi Cole" wrote in message ...

When you reinstalled windows, you did reinstall mobo drivers? Especially AGP
(if required). "Marnok.com" wrote in message ...

yes, I even followed the instruction to install the "graphy" drivers after
installing AGP. "oldwolf" wrote in message u... When you reinstalled windows, you did reinstall mobo drivers? Especially AGP (if required). "Marnok.com" wrote in message ...
