Hi Guys,
Having problems installing drivers on this card. When I first installed the card the "found new harware wizard" comes up and WindowsXP does NOT load the default drivers. In other words XP does not recognize the card. I cancelled out of the wizard and installed the 43.45 drivers which I downloaded from Nvidia. After rebooting the "found new hardware" wizard again popped up asking for drivers. Its like when I install the latest drivers they are not finding my card. An Asus CD came bundled with the card that has drivers on it and when I use the CD the drivers load fine and work. After installing the drivers from the bundled CD, I tried loading the 43.45 again, did not take......same version of driver shows in device manager that is on bundled CD.
Couple things I noticed:
1. When installing the 43.45 driver a Nvidia folder is created on my C drive and all the driver files are put in there, which is normal I know.
2. When I use the bundled CD to load the drivers no such Nvidia folder is created on my C drive.
What the heck am I doing wrong here? Every other Nvidia based Graphics card I have owned was easily updated by just downloading the latestest driver and installing it.
