Hi Guys,
I need help with a particularly irritating problem. When I start Aces High or other games (also Internet Explorer) I get the following Blue Screen Error:
"A fatal exception (0: Divide by Zero) has occurred at 0028:C18F0EEA in VxD NVCORE (01) +0003DD2A"
Here is my System:
AMD Athlon XP 2500+ @1.84GHz
MSI K7N2 MB (NVIDIA NForce 2 Chipset)
512 MB DDRAM
Windows 98SE
Hercules Prophet II MX (32 MB)
SB PCI 512
DirectX 9.0a
Here is what I have done:
Reinstalled the NVIDIA video drivers with the most recent version
Turned off AGP 8X
Reinstalled DirectX
Turned Graphics Acceleration all the way down
Nothing has worked so far - HELP!
Thanks,
SEAGOON

The error appears to be coming from the NVidia drivers. Try the 30.82 Det's and that will probably cure the problem.
The 44.xx drivers have some issues with older cards.

Skuzzy,
OK, I went back to the drivers that came with the card, and that seems to have cured the problem. The only problem now being that while I know those drivers work with AH, they don't work with a host of other games (AA, BF1942, etc.). I was actually using the 30.82 drivers before - the 4 series is for Windows XP and 2000.
So here is my next question - do you happen to know where I can find NVIDIA display drivers in between the shipped drivers (version 4.12.01.0532, 06/26/2000) and the latest 98SE drivers (30.82 02-28-2003)?
Thanks!

Cut and pasted from http://www.nividia.com FAQs section:
Where can I download older Detonator drivers?
Older Detonator Drivers can be downloaded from the driver archive page for each OS:
Windows 95/98/Me: http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?PAGE=pg_20010907943252
Windows XP/2000: http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?PAGE=pg_20010907751234
Windows NT: http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?PAGE=pg_20010907735934
Linux: http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?PAGE=linux_driver_archive
Or, you may locate previous Detonator drivers by typing in the driver version you are looking for in the "Search" field located on NVIDIA's Web site at: http://www.nvidia.com. For example, if you wish to locate the previous Detonator 3 drivers version 12.41, then you will need to type in "12.41" in the search field and then press the "GO" link or press ENTER on your keyboard. After a couple of seconds, the Web site should return with links to the drivers you are looking for.
Hope this helps!!
