Default "Blue Screen" on DXDIAG....help needed!

Using
WinXP SP1
ASUS A7V KT133 MBoard Bios V1011
ABIT Siluro Geforce2 MX400 w\Nvidia Detonator Driver v29.42
786MB Physical SDRAM PC133
DirectX8.1, and recently Upgraded to 9.0a

Problem

If I run dxdiag and test Direct Draw my PC "Blue Screens" with a pretty
generic error. It doesn't tell me a driver that failed or anything.

How can I narrow this down to either MBoard, Vid Card, OS....I did upgrade
dx but still same outcome.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

steve

Uninstall your current GeForce drivers, then install "certified" =
drivers.

Download and install a certified driver for your NVIDIA video card:

Open XP's "Help and Support" and type: DIRECTX , and hit enter.
Then click on "Troubleshooting DirectX".
