Creative GeForce - don't work :(

[wime 0]

hi

 

i have still the same problem with my Creative GeForce. I have installed a 2170 instead of 2128, and used the Nvidia reference drivers 3.53 to configure my card.

 

After reboot, when on the screen i expect to see my w2k desktop, my screen becomes black and..... thats all ! Crashed !

 

(same problem with 3.56 drivers)

 

I ca only run w2k with VGA or Safe mode.

 

Please help me, i have no idea of the problem

 

(dual cele 500 on Abit bp6, 128Mo Ram, 13.5 HD, iiyama 17",sb live player 1024, cdrom 40x, isa scsi adapter 1502 for Zip100, floppy...)

Ummmm. thats weird.. did you do a clean install? or and upgrade to NT 4?

 

From what i know.. sometimes.. motherboard BIOS sometimes make screw things for you. I have a TNT2. When i got it and installed my computer wont even boot up. So i check the motherboard web site to see if they had BIOS updates. I did an update.. and it got fixed.

 

IF you did a Upgrade i suggest that you try a clean install and use the new 3.56 drivers from nvidia.. and also check you motherboard and see if you can get a BIOS update for it.

 

Let me know after you had done this.

thank you guyz

 

it seems working now )

 

i changed my scsi ISA adapter (comes with Zip100 internal), and i replaced it with a newer PCI Tekram DC-315U, to control my new Teac CD-R, and the Zip..... and it's work.

 

I don't understand why, because the device manager doesn't report any conflict with my previos card.

 

Thanks again for your answers )

(ps. my instalation was always clean, not an upgrade for nt)
