After the BSOD, did you have to reload any system files? Something may have been corrupted by whatever caused it. Have you tried a System Restore to a point before the BSOD? You can try uninstalling the Nvidia display drivers. Then shut down the PC, remove the AGP card, connect your monitor cable to the built-in VGA port, and boot back up. Once the Standard VGA drivers are installed, reboot if it asks you to. If not, shut it down, put the AGP card back in, and reconnect the monitor cable to it. Boot into BIOS (press Delete or F1 on boot-up), go to the PCI/Plug and Play Setup and change the Primary Graphics Adapter to AGP (if it isn't already). Save and exit. Once Windows boots back up, you'll probably see the Found New Hardware wizard. Cancel out of that. If you have any anti-malware and 3rd party firewalls (like Norton or Zone Alarm), temporarily turn them off. Run the Nvidia setup program, reboot, and make sure your firewall and anti-malware programs are re-enabled. See if it all works now. -- SC Tom |

You could try this to remove your Nvidia drivers. (Nvidia - Nasty File Remover) http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=582 I would use Add-Remove to uninstall your present drivers first, use the above tool and reboot into Safe Mode to install the new drivers (while in Safe Mode, disable your Anti-Virus,Anti-Spyware and Firewall before installing the new drivers) Upon reboot , re-enable the above programs before connecting to the Internet.

Nvidia GForce Agp card (dvi plus analog port) trouble
thx. so it seems I either start from scratch with a new os or restore form
an older image would give me a better chance. the card was removed and plugged back in before. and I don't know what the other person did trying to fix the problem. what about some how using both built-in and AGP graphic card?

Most MB's won't allow the use of an AGP and a PCI card. Wouldn't hurt to try, though. -- SC Tom |
