New 45.23 Installation
Could anyone help me out? I just instaled the new 45.23 drivers on my
computer. My card is a NVIDIA Geforce 3, with 64 mb RAM. I have WinXP with an Inte Pentium 4 processor at 1.75 GHZ. Everything installed fine, exept when I check the driver properties in Device Manager. There, it states the driver is version 43.51. When I attept to update the driver to the 45.23 version, I get an error message that states there was an error in installation, the parameter is incorrect. At that point, it aborts the update. Anyone know why this is happeniong, and if there is a solution? Thanks for any help you may provide! Bob |

What you should do first before trying to install the new drivers is to
uninstall the old ones first. NIK "Gallagher" wrote in message k.net... Could anyone help me out? I just installed the new 45.23 drivers on my computer. My card is a NVIDIA Geforce 3, with 64 mb RAM.

I never have and never will as I've seen this problem happen with people before. Just extract all of the files into a new directory and then manually select Update Driver from the Device Manager and point it to the directory you extracted the files to. It will definitely take the new drivers then. |

Simple. Always uninstall existing display drivers from Add/Remove programs
control panel, before installing new ones. "Gallagher" wrote in message .net... Could anyone help me out? I just instaled the new 45.23 drivers on my computer.

I've tried all your suggestions, and still I get the "parameter is
incorrect" error. I have had to resort to System Restore to get everything back the way it was. Any other ideas? "Shaun" wrote in message ... Simple.
