GeForce 2 mx400, can't install video driver
Hey folks,
I hope one of you can help.. I've recently tried updating my video card driver and can't get it to work I've downloaded the drivers from nvidia, tried using the windows update method. And it fails everytime... I did manage to get it to install an old nvidia driver, but that isn't what I'm looking to do.. Any help would be greatly appreciated, TIA -- "The developed nations of the world cannot remain secure islands of prosperity in a seething sea of poverty.

Your video card is a much older design and is NOT stable with the newer
Nvidia drivers which are designed to deliver DX 9.0c which is not compatible with your card. You SHOULD be using the older more stable drivers for that card, such as the 45.23. -- DaveW "Four20Seconds" wrote in message ... Hey folks, I hope one of you can help..
