Have you tried changing your settings to the minimum resolution and refresh rate (800x600 and 60 or 66Hz, I think) while in safe mode then restarting? Also, make sure your driver file is 77.72_win2kxp_english_whql.exe not 77.72_winxp64_english.exe. |

Well, seeing as how it's a brand new system, i don't think any old drivers would be at fault here. I'll try your method, lesse if it works :O |

Its you. I'm not really sure what to suggest as i never had the misfortune of using a PCI FX series card. Have you tried booting to safemode, running drivercleaner then installing the latest forceware drivers? If you have some old ATI or similar drivers still lurking on your system it could cause lots of problems. |

Blasted Nvidia GeForce problem Howcome it seems like whenever you have a technical problem, yours is the only one not covered in any tech support forum? Anyway... So i've got this GeFore FX 5600 video card, right? 128 MB DDR Ram, whatever. So, i paid $60 for this thing, and i'd like to use it. Catch is (it's a PCI card, i was low on funds) that when i plug it in (drivers installed SEVERAL times, including drivers for a 64-bit processor which i KNOW i don't have, it's only 2.93 GHz) and attach the monitor cable, i get frozen at the win XP loadup screen. I can boot it fine in safe mode, but for some gay reason it like to freeze me at this screen. When i switch the slot it's in, the same thing happens. I know it's not overheating, and i know it's not lacking in power, because i can run it in safe mode. I even tried putting a small heatsink/fan on top of it and a larger CPU cooling fan underneath it and i still get frozen. Any ideas? For the record, also, Is it me, or does NVidia make cards with tons and tons of hardware conflict problems? |
