If you read above youll see its nothing to do with that, it a problem with some of the drivers what SP2/3 installs. |

Just installed SP2, and got the winacpci.sys driver stop error again, I might try uninstalling SP2, making a copy of winacpci.sys, installing SP2, and then manually replacing the winacpci.sys driver with the coppy I made using safemode. |

| 110045 | 2002-12-31 04:07:00 | WO HO :):):) that did the trick, replacing the new winacpci.sys driver with the old winacpci.sys driver seemed to fix the problem :) Now to see whether I can install the NVIDA drivers without problems. |

| 110046 | 2002-12-31 04:15:00 | Ouch, now I have installed the NVIDA drivers I getStop: c000026c {unable to load device driver} \SystemRoot\System32\DRIVERS\nv4_mini.sys could not be loaded Error status was 0xc0000221 Any Ideas? |

| 110047 | 2002-12-31 04:30:00 | havent you had this error before? I have the same graphics card, different vendor probably, but I also use 2K. I think that its talking about a minifx driver, Im not too sure on it, but i can just remember reading something about it while setting up DoD. I'm off to the nVidia site.. maybe I'll meet you there :p get back to ya.. Chilling_Silence |

| 110048 | 2002-12-31 04:39:00 | Quote from nVidia.com: "Detonator 40 is the beta graphics driver for all NVIDIA Graphics Processing Units (GPUs)." I would suggest an older driver, 39.xx perhaps! |

| 110049 | 2002-12-31 05:57:00 | Well I loaded up the old drivers off the CD that came with the card; V 27.20 01-15-02, and got the same nv4_mini.sys stop error again..... | nz_liam (845) | ||
