184251 2003-10-17 09:16:00 I upgraded my Geforce mx 460, to a Geforce 4 Ti4200, and now DVD's are kind of 'ghosty'

There is kind of a faint ghost of a person, moved slightly to the right, and all the colour is a tad off.

I have the latest drivers, but according to tomshardware, the latest ones have a problem with lighting levels or something.

Could that be causing the problem?

Try removing them and then re-installing them for your new card (Unless you already have)
What DVD Player are you using (Power DVD?) and have you got DX 9?

Go there to find out what happened.

Should I install MSI drivers, or NVIDIA drivers?

If I install MSI, it will go back to 44.03, but maybe that is a good thing.

I think the whole harddrive is a bit screwed, because when we first got XP we loaded on all our old programs that crased and what not, anf tried more stuff, deleted lots, and generally made a mess.

Now, after the drive image, i think things have got worse, and maybe that is screwing up the graphics, but I wouldnt know.

No chance of formating it though. Dad couldn't take the stress :-) since all his workl is on there.

Do I have to un install the current drivers, before loading new ones?

184254 2003-10-18 00:17:00 If you're running WinXP, then yes, because its not too had to do a Driver Roll-back.

I'd give the "old" ones from the nVidia website a shot then if you think it may be the latest set.

Under Downloads you can choose to download the out-dated ones :-)

Let us know how you get on

184255 2003-10-18 04:25:00 Ummm. Do I use the rollback feature, or just uninstall, then install other drivers?

How does the rollback thing work?

I seem to remember it asks for a cd or something
