I've installed the latest drivers for my 64mb Geforce 2 Ti card but I'm still getting graphical problems on some games, mostly blackness on the screen. My system is an AMD Athlon 1.4ghz, 512mb DDR ram. It's doing my head in, can anyone plz help?

Are the drivers you installed the latest reference drivers from nVidia?? They are apt to be a bit more up to date than anything from your card's manufacturer. I recall having that problem at one time, esp. in Q3 Arena. I just can't remember what I did to fix it. If you do have the latest Detonator drivers from nVidia, try tweaking the settings.

From a Microsoft web page:
If an older application gives you trouble when running Windows XP, you can set the compatibility properties manually so that the program runs in a different mode, such as Windows 95, or in a different display or resolution setting. To set the compatibility properties for a program:
1. Right?click the executable or the program shortcut to the executable, and then click Properties.
2. Select the Run this program in compatibility mode check box.
3. From the list, select an operating system that the program runs in comfortably.
4. If necessary, also change the display settings and/or resolution, or disable the Windows XP visual themes.Run the program again when you?re finished changing the settings. Adjust the compatibility settings again if the program is still not running smoothly: a program that?s unhappy on Windows 2000 may flourish on Windows 98.

Try troubleshooting, go to Control Panel, Display, Settings, Advanced, Troubleshoot.
You can adjust hardware acceleration which may give you a clue to the problem>
