Post by: Silat on July 22, 2005, 01:20:57 PM
Instructions for proper install of video drivers.

Pick 1 driver:


Nvidea - http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp - go here and download the drivers to your desktop.

ATI - http://www.ati.com/support/drivers/....x=5&submit.y=4 - go here and download the drivers to your desktop.

Omega tweaked drivers. Recommended by Nvidea and ATI - http://www.omegadrivers.net/main.php - go here and download the drivers to your desktop.


Now get this:
http://www.driverheaven.net - Put it on your desktop


Now install DRIVER CLEANER


Go to add and remove programs and remove all references to ATI or Nvidea.

Restart in safe mode. Usually by clicking the f8 button during reboot.

DO NOT INSTALL ANYTHING if windows asks.

.

Run DRIVER CLEANER AND CLICK THE CLEAN button.



Then restart. DO NOT INSTALL ANYTHING once again. It's ok, all will be well :)

When you reach your desktop click on the driver you downloaded and follow prompts.

Restart..

 

If you have any problems read the helpfile that comes with DRIVE CLEANER.
