Windows Update tells me I have new driver available "NVIDIA display software
update released on July 28, 2003". I download and install, but when I
restart I get the big blue error screen tells me there was a problem with
it, the thing went into the infinite loop. (I am sorry I did not get the
exact message). I had this problem before but forgot it was related to a
previous attempt to download the driver. I managed to put my system back to
a previous setting so things are okay now. I have gone through the control
panel - system - hardware - device manager, to update drivers, signed
driver. But I do not know why the driver update, via Windows Update, throws
my system for a loop.

WindowsXP
800 x 600 in 64K Colors, NVIDIA GeForce3 Ti 200 (Microsoft Corporation) Ver.
6.13
AMD Athlon(tm) XP 1800+ 1.5 GHz

Any suggestions, thanks Bob

Go to the NVIDIA web site for the driver, it is an automatic install. It may work
better
