My Leadtek WinFast GF3 Ti200 works perfectly. When I try to upgrade the driver, though, I have a problem. Per the nearly universally recommended protocol, I switch the driver to Standard VGA (in Win98SE) and then delete the installed nVidia driver through Add/Remove Programs. On rebooting, the card should be detected as new hardware, and it is, but NOT as WHAT it actually is. Instead, Device Manager says that it's a "PCI video adapter" whereas it should read "WinFast Titanium 200." Because of this misrecognition, the new nVidia drivers refuse to install. I can get going again only by restoring the whole partition from a Drive Image backup. Obviously, my Dell XPS R450 (now with a Celeron 1.2GHz) recognized it correctly when it was first installed but no longer. Does this misrecognition of the Plug and Play video card indicate that the card itself is defective?
