Driver installation

[Milos Puchta]

Insted of Microsoft driver I would like to install the vendor
newest driver for NVIDIA card. After uninstallation the old
driver is installed automatically. How to block automatic
installation and install different driver?

TIA
Milos

The NVIDIA driver will replace the Microsoft driver. If you don't
allow the Microsoft driver to install first, you will have no driver
and you won't be able to see your screen.

Nicholas is right, downloading and installng the latest
nvidia driver will replace the Microsoft driver. this is
a default driver that allows you to have some sort of
video display. without it you would not be able to boot
your system because there would be video errors.

I may be wrong but I think the OP means that after installing the latest
NVIDIA driver, when booting up, the old driver is re-installed. I believe
this to be the case because I had/have the same problem with a printer
driver. I.E. After installing a driver from the Epson site, when I reboot
the XP driver is re-installed. It's as though a plug and play is activated
and ignoring the new driver.

I have posted the question of how to stop XP loading drivers for hardware
when they're usually the wrong ones. Why can it not give a choice of which
drivers to use like Win98 did? In the main I'm very happy with XP but this
is one of the things I find very irritating about it.
