Problems with new drivers?

Holy Swear Filter Batman, but these are powerful drivers! They blew my entire Windows set up away.
After I followed the link to the nVidia page, downloaded and installed, the beast refused to boot. Well, she booted, and immediately rebooted, and rebooted, and rebooted.
I finally managed to get into safe mode to uninstall the pesky little buggers; started at the beginning with HD drivers, which produced a restart. And then: Windows refused to load because some file or another was corrupted or missing. I should know which one, because I saw the name so many times it should be burned into my memory; but I guess I've repressed it.
Repair mode didn't work; the only thing that did was a new install. Hey, great.
Chances are I did something wrong, but unless nVidia explains it to me in words of one syllable, I'm going to blame them!
Oh yes, of course, I wasn't backed up Double Ouch!
System:
Mecca Future Dreamers CP101
Thermaltake Purepower ATX420W
MSI K7N2G-L
BIOS 3.2
XP2000+ T'bred
1 x 256MB Spectek PC2700
Maxtor 40GB 7200RPM
JustCool internal HD cooler
Maxtor 6.4GB 5400RPM
Lite-On 32x12x40
NEC 100MB Zip drive
Win 2k Pro (SP 3)

My system wont recognize DVD's now after trying the 3.13's. I tried mWarheads nForce reset and Driver cleaner route first = no go. I reformatted and reloaded OS with both Microsofts IDE drivers, no go, then mWarheads 2.45 remix still no go. I'm ready to snap this mobo in half. I will try a different drive first. Its rediculous that nVidia can't release good drivers as long as these boards have been out.......
  I'm about ready to try Intel.......  never, EVER thought I'd say that......

  • Problems with new Audigy driv

    <p class="MsoNormal">I have just installed a Sound Blaster Audigy Platinum Model SB0090 to replace my old SB Li've. When upgrading from older Audigy drivers to the latest drivers available on the Creative support website, I find that they cause serious problems with my 4. digital speaker system (Boston BA7500G). With either of the newest drivers installed, when I adjust the volume using either the Creative Surround Mixer or the Creative Remote Control, it causes the rear speakers to stop working. Closer investigation revealed that moving the volume slider in Creative Surround Mixer had a strange effect in Windows Audio Control Panel. Upon opening the Speaker Volume tab in Windows Audio Control Panel, it revealed 8 speaker channels (suggesting that it detected the Audigy card as a 7. when in fact it only supports? 5.). When I moved the volume slider on the Creative Surround Mixer (in either direction) it had the effect of moving all but three of the speaker volume sliders in the Windows Audio Control Panel (Right Channel, Left Channel and Channel 8) to zero, with the result that the rear speakers stopped working. Inm other words, Windows was insisting that the speaker setup was 2. and not 4. as in the Surround Mixer selection. ?It made no difference if either or both of the checkboxes ?Synchronize with Windows Control panel? in Creative Audio Console or ?Move all sliders at the same time? in Windows Control Panel were checked or not. This problem is present in both SBAX_PCDRV_LB_2_8_000.exe and SBAX_PCDRVBETA_US_2_8_000.exe. It does not appear to be present with the older driver SBAX_WBUP2_LB_2_09_006.exe, so for now I have rolled back to that. In fact, with SBAX_WBUP2_LB_2_09_006.exe Windows Audio Control Panel only shows 2 channels in the Speaker Volume tab; Left Channel and Right Channel, but all speakers in my 4. system work and the controls in Creative Surround Mixer and Remote Control all work fine. I would like to be able to take advantage of the fixes available in the two newer drivers but they cause me serious problems. Can anybody help? Finally, the presence of a beta driver on the website suggests that a newer version is coming soon. I wonder?if this issue be addressed with the new driver.

    I have some problem as you with new drivers SBAX_PCDRV_LB_2_8_000.exe and SBAX_PCDRVBETA_US_2_8_000.exe. Only in my case I use SB Audigy and headphone 5.. Always when I check 5. in Audio Console it reset to 2.. I can set 2. or headphone only.Message Edited by AlkaliX on 09-3-2008 09:53 AM

  • Problems with graphics drivers

    Hello, I tried to install new drivers to my Ati 6770m (2gb) and there is a problem with almost every driver. For example the newest ati catalyst 14.5 beta.  When the driver is installed, I can't switch to the resolution higher than 1024x768. Ati catalyst control centre is not installed or I there is an error message saying, that the driver is not installed correctly so the control centre can't open. Sometimes the system crashes to the blue screen and I have to reboot. I see this problem with various drivers. The only driver, that is working for me is Ati Catalyst 13.10 mobility beta. And with this driver there's a lot of graphic problems with GTA V. I see squares on all objects in distance when dx11 and AA is turned on. It is unplayable with this driver. Please help.   

    Hey @Tommy2220 ,
    Thanks for the additional information. If you uninstall all that you have in the graphic drivers section of the Device manager, including the drivers that are present. Restart the Notebook, and download from here. You will only need AMD/Intel Switchable High-Definition (HD) Graphics Driver, it includes everything you will need.
    You can also find them , here is a link to the HP Support Assistant if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system.
    Hope this helps you out.
    Thanks.

  • Problems with new catalyst

    I Have a problem with newer catalyst version 4.7 and 4.8..sometimes the screen goes totally black,it's like the montitor goes into sleep mode or screensaver.
    This can happen at startup or after while the only thing i can do is to restart the computer by turning it off(or reset).
    With cat 4.6 and the drivers before everything works fine.
    I tried fastwrites on/off(no good)
    Disable Vpu recover(no good)
    Raise agp voltage to 1.6V(no good)
    I also tried asus own driver but the same thing happens.
    However i came to think of if there is anything i should change in power managment in bios because the comp won't wake up from sleep mode when pushing on the keyboard or moving the mouse(this is with cat 4.6 wich works great otherwise)
    I hope someone have an answer to my mysterious problem

    At this point, I'm loathing my decision to mess with my vid drivers at all, and wondering how come the vid card has started to lock up in 3d..  I start messing with all sorts of settings.. Finally, tuning the AGP speed from 8X to 4X totally resolved the freezes.
    QUESTION: WHY ALL OF A SUDDEN DID 8X AGP STOP WORKING???
    AMD 64 3200+
    K8T-NEO
    Antec 430W PSU
    ATI RADEON 9600 PRO AGP
    SB LIVE
    1GB CORSAIR C2 DDR (2x512)
    Lite-ON DVD/CD+RW
    Windows XP SP2
    I have never got my 8x AGP to work, its always hard locks when I use it...dunno why I don't really care. When I upgrade to a pure 8x AGP card i might if it still happens. Actually if it continues to happen there is a good chance I will get rid of this board and get the nforce probable. But at any rate, setting AGP to 4x has always fixed every video card problem I have had since putting this computer together. So try that I suspect it will fix your problem as well.
    Also note that we have very similar setup's so try it and let us know if that works out for you.

  • Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "

    Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "
    i was in 4.3.1 then i do the update , but now after update i face this problem , so what i Supposed to do ?!!

    Hi There
    Had the same problem as you. App would terminate when launched.
    Solution to working You Tube app:
    -Go to playstore
    - Uninstall app (it doesn't remove the app, only removes the update)
    - "Et Voila", working again.
    This doesn't correct the problem, it's just a workaround for you to be able to use youtube app again.
    Hope it helped.
    Best Regards

  • Wifi problems with new ipad

    I'm trying to learn how to correct wifi problems with new iPad.  It is the wifi only, 64GB model.  I want to be able to use it at work, where we have a great wifi network.  I can usually connect to our network with no problem, but after an hour or so my iPad loses the network.  When I try to reconnect, I see that the network is showing full strength reception, but I get the error message from the iPad that I am "Unable to join" the network.  My iPhone connects to the same network seamlessly, as do all of the other iPhones of my co-workers and the older generation iPads that some of our staff has.
    At other locations, I typically have no problems (home, apple store, etc.) but I have had the same situation pop up at a coffee shop where I could see that there was a wifi network available, but I could not join it even though it was the shop's free wifi. 
    I have tried turning the iPad off, turning off wifi and turning it back on again, and forgetting the wifi network in question.  I can't think of any other methods that are available to an end user to correct the problem. 
    I have already gone to the Apple store to swap out the unit, and the newer one is having the same symptoms. 
    Can anyone offer any advice here?  This is quite frustrating.

    No problem! Have a read at this most interesting article which has special significance as regards your models!

  • List of Problems with new Web Mail

    List of Problems with NEW Web Mail :
    - At first doesn't open full page message list or retain full page as default setting, have to drag down bar
    - Only shows 20 message lines after “pulling down” the divider, screen partially empty until I scroll down.  It should show at least 26, preferably all available
    - After moving bar, bar moves back up after going back to inbox (not delete message) after reading a message, have to move it down again, and again...
    - Doesn't go to next message when delete message on screen is selected, no setting option for default to do this.
    - There is a drop down to select which folder to move a selected email to.  The initial display shows 7 usable choices, with the usual slider and arrow to show more choices.  The space on the slider clearly shows more choices are present (actually about 20 or so are there), but any attempt to use the slider or arrow to see more choices causes the drop-down to instantly disappear.  I can't move the selected field with arrow keys either.  I can select any of the visible 7 choices, and move an email to only one of the 7.  NOTE: This one works in both IE and Firefox, but if Verizon Webmail was fully web standard (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_standards) compliant it would also work in my preferred browser, Mozilla Seamonkey, the direct descendant of the original Mozilla browser.  Webmail should be FULLY web standard.
    - Occasionally a message will move from inbox to trash, without NO indication or command to move them.
    - Emails occasionally flash an error message and simply disappear - not to trash or other findable place, just disappear.  No time to read the error message either.
    - No way to set a whitelist for supposed spam emails, unless the whitelist for “Blocking” is the same.  Very unclear.
    - How can I switch my service back to the original, basic, email which works ok?  I know it’s still there, since some of my other accounts still access it!!!
    This seems my only way of getting this info direclty to the programming staff.  If it doesn't actually do this, will SOMEONE PLEASE FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO THEM !?!  
    Thanks!

    Contrarily, it is Verizon's, as well as other companies like Verizon whose customer base uses a wide variety of web browsers, web page designers' responsibility to use only standard W3C-recognized code and not to use non-standard non-W3C-recognized code, e.g., Microsoft's Internet Explorer specific code, when designing their web pages. In my opinion based on my observations, Verizon's web page designers are too often guilty of using IE-specific code.

  • Before I buy has there been any problems with new 27 iMacs?

    Before I spend my hard earned cash does anyone know if there has been any problems with new 27 iMacs?

    Hello richard from Folsom:
    Are you inside or outside?  (  I could not resist, I lived in Sactown).
    Anyway, advice is frequently worth what you pay for it, and mine is free.
    If you want it, buy it.  The posts above are right on the mark (except waiting is probably overly-cautious).  The best advice (from anamusic) is to buy the extended warranty - well worth the money.

  • I just started using my iphone 5s. I have a problem with new incoming emails from my POP account. Why are they marked as read automatically even though I have not even opened them yet.

    I just started using my iphone 5s. I have a problem with new incoming emails from my POP account. Why are they marked as read automatically even though I have not even opened them yet.
    At first I thought it might be because I was using simultaneously my old iPhone 4S so it somehow realized the emails where being pushed to another device and the it marked as read, this has nothing to do since I have deleted the email account from the iPhone 4S

    Contact the email provider for assistance with their service.
