Nvidia Display Driver

I'd like to jump in this one...

I am using a GeForce4 Ti 4200 and have the most current
Detonator drivers (4.4.0.3). However, I have trouble
with 3D games and stop screens (a bad mixture) and I can
only assume that I need some older drivers that are
approved for Win XP (4.4.0.3 is not). So I downloaded an
older set of drivers, but cannot get rid of the newer
ones. When I uninstall them, they are auto-detected
immediately on restart and reinstalled. When I install
the old drivers, nothing happens and the new ones are
still used. How can I get rid of the new drivers and
replace with the old??

Mike,

I am using a GeForce4 Ti 4200 as well. I went to the
nVidia site an downloaded the Detonator series 45.23
which are WHQL now. They work fine on my computer. Since
you are having trouble installing older versions of the
drivers, installing the newer ones might do the trick.

Also I was wondering if anyone could help me out on a
driver conflict. After I install the nVidia WDM drivers
so I can use the video-in (cpature) feature, my system
crashes on every boot with a BSOD error message
DRIVER_IRQ_NOT_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL. I have a clean
install of windows XP sliped streamed with sp1 and I have
all the current critical updates from the windows updates
site. I have an nVidia nForce chipset motherboard with
the latest WHQL v2.45 driver installed, I am using a MSI
GeForce4 Ti4200 8xAGP video card with the onboard philips
7108A chip for VIVO. I've installed the latest Detonator
series 45.23 drivers which are WHQL. System runes good
and is stable, but as soon as I install the WDM driver
and reboot I continue to get the BSOD message. I have
tried many version of the WDM drivers, 1.22 which is in
the nVidia site, 1.27, 2.03, 1.08. I haven't found any
versions that work or is WHQL. I don't remember having
any problems in my old motherboard which had VIA
chipsets. I can only think that the onboard audio on the
nForce MB, which is an nVidia chipset, may be causing the
problem. In the DirectX Diagnostics (dxdiag) the audio
driver shows up as a WDM driver. I can only think that
since both use WDM and are nVidia driver, that is where
the conflict rises. Any ideas would be greatly
appreciated.

John

I had the same problem. I used the "roll back driver"
feature in device manager. This rolled my driver back to
the original install driver. Which worked fine, so I
have no idea why I upgraded in the first place. I also
noticed when booting the start up wav would stutter when
the video drivers were getting loaded. The version that
is working for me is 4.1.0.9

I recently had problems playing a new DVD on Windows
Media because the movie said it was propritary and would
not play on a player with the TV out turned on. I
narrowed the problem down to the Nvidia display driver
for my video card. I went to the Nvidia Web site and
downloaded the most current version 4.5.2.3 dated July
03. This fixed the movie playing problem. The current
problem I have is that everytime I run windows update it
keeps coming up with a new driver is available version
4.4.0.3 dated April 02. I assume that this is in fact an
older version as it is half the file size of the current
version I have loaded. Why does update keep telling me
this is the current version and how do I make it go away?
