Driver
The video display adapter on my computer contains driver NVARCH 16.dll.,
file version 4.13.01.2832. I have downloaded this driver from http://www.video-drivers.com/ but it's file version is 4.12.1.368. Is this an update or a completely different driver? How is the safest way to install this driver? Thanks |

What is your Video display card? - without that minor detail, everything is
supposition! Always, if you can, download the drivers from the manufacturer's website - they are the ones who wrote them, after all, and usually have proper instructions on the installation. -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2005, Windows) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.btinternet.com/~winnoel/millsrpch.htm http://tinyurl.com/6oztj Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's "L.

The nVidia Vanta is a card I know well!
The problem is that the basic Vanta chipset is in use by a large number of manufacturers - each of which should have optimised drivers for their implementation. Look here for the drivers provided by nVidia themselves - which are the baseline set. http://download.nvidia.com/Windows/6...9x_english.exe You need to find out who provided the actual card or motherboard - try using Everest Home Edition (www.lavalys.hu) to see if it gives a clue. -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2005, Windows) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.btinternet.com/~winnoel/millsrpch.htm http://tinyurl.com/6oztj Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's "L.

This may be a good place for Mike M to expand on his comment that installing
the latest nVida graphic driver, under WinME, deprives the ability to create a new folder on a right click, or to select thumbnail view in explorer, or the abiliity to share. It appears the nVidia installer wipes out the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CLASSES\Directory registry key. Perhaps Mike will explain how to repair this key. -- Jack E.

Hi Jack,
If L.B. Keaton let's us know that he is having problems I will either post here or send him a zip file containing a reg file that he can merge with the registry to add back any entries that might have been removed from that key.

Jack, I'm aware of that issue in SOME systems. I'm running nVidia latest drivers for WinME (61.76) and did not have that problem. Zee "Jack E Martinelli" wrote in message ...

The problem isn't with the nVidia drivers but rather with some recent
versions of the installer used by nVidia. -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP oops!! wrote: I'm aware of that issue in SOME systems. I'm running nVidia latest drivers for WinME (61.76) and did not have that problem. |
