MxxCon Posted February 4, 2002 Share Posted February 4, 2002 after reinstalling drivers your monitor is set to work at 60hz you prolly configured your picture for normal windows and 85hz, but at 60hz it looks like you said. get http://www.planetquake.com/ztn/nvreffix/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blodia Posted February 4, 2002 Author Share Posted February 4, 2002 thanx for the help guys..tried the 27.xx drivers and they worked perfectly..but i still get the bsod when I click on my opengl tab in the advanced display properties. oh well you win some you lose some. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xelencin Posted February 4, 2002 Share Posted February 4, 2002 to get everything working ok go get the current offical nvidia drivers www.nvidia.com those should work fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blodia Posted February 4, 2002 Author Share Posted February 4, 2002 i've tried all the drivers. anything after 12.40 gives me the bsod when I click the advanced tab in the display properties. it got better now, before it use to crash when i clicked advanced, now i can go up to additional properties and look at the d3d tab and and the 3d antialiasing tab. if i click the opengl tab, overlay controls, or desktop utilities, the screen like gives a quick flash, then the comp freezes for 10 sec, then the bsod. You guys think that its because my card is pci? GeForce II MX (Prophet, from Hercules, PCI) Windows XP 384mbs of ram Intel Chipset, I guess the mobo is from compaq. PIII 750 thanx for the reply guys.
