Hi,

I'm running under Windows XP and I have a strange problem with my Geforce2
Mx400 video card. The problem is : random success when I try to start my
computer (sometimes no display and it runs ok after several reset) or the
computer can be suddenly blocked after it has correctly started. And
sometimes evrything is ok...

I had a message concerning a *nv4_disp.dll conflict* and I installed the
53.03 nvidia driver whithout success.

Does anybody can try to help me, please ?

Thanks

PS : sorry for my english

Uninstall the Forceware drivers (Detonators drivers) completely. This
includes rebooting with standard VGA drivers, and *ignoring* any and all
attempts of Windows XP to try and install the detonators.

Once you are running with Standard VGA, delete all NV*.* files on your
drive.

Once that is completed, install the 40.X series of Detonator Drivers. The
5X.X series is too 'advanced' for your card, and while they should work,
they provide no advantage to you.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

Thanks for your answer, Derek.

Is there a reason to not install the 53.03 driver again ? Because the
problem appeared when I had the 30.82 driver... and I need to download the
40.xx... with my poor 56K modem Wink

The only reason to use the older driver is to maintain the highest level of
compatibility, for trouble-free operation. The later drivers are optimized
for current hardware, your card is not current.

If you wish to use the latest driver, you increase your chance of not having
trouble free operation, however, considering the problem which prompted this
post, you are certainly free to try the 5X.X series.

Adding, removing and re-adding drivers, particularly ones not in the same
family (3x, 4x, 5x) is a sure way to introduce errors, unless you
assiduously delete them when removed. It's not you, it's imperfect software.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

I agree... But I've read that one of the advantages of the latest driver is
to correct some bugs existing with the olders.

So, I've done what you proposed in your first post. I'll tell you if it's
ok... in a cupple of days (time to see if i'ts really ok, regarding with the
random symptom of my difficulty).

See you.

Well... I haven't had to need a lot of days to see the result of what I did
: the problem is not solved and starting my computer is becoming more and
more difficult.

Do you know another way to try to solve this graphic problem ?

This is an indication of a larger problem than mere driver error. The
quickest suggestion I can give you is, if possible and within your
abilities, to 'do over' with an OS reinstall. Not recommended, but the
surest way to rule out software problems.

Barring that, find a true hardware specialist to physically inspect your PC,
there are many clues that can point to the exact problem that no amount of
posts can describe. Good luck!<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

So, I've opened the PC, checked all the connectors, put out the graphic card
and reinstalled it to the agp connector... after having cleaned fan and
radiator (what a lot of dust !). I also checked the connections at the back
of the PC and, especially, the monitor one.

After this, I runned the PC and it has started correctly from the first
time... and several other times after Cool

Hopping I won't be bored with this kind of problem, thank you for you help
