Here goes...I had an old system, amd k6, just installed xp, and I got myself a nvidea MX400 32MB video card...The problem that I have is that...when I tried to installed the card...it boot up normally, the system recognize the new hardware but the thing is as soon that it's trying to do an automatic installed, it automatically froze. I tried running in safe mode, and it will load up nicely, it will installed the hardware and everything...when it reboot and load up in normal mode it will freeze everytime... I even tried downloading the drivers from the nvidea.com...same thing happen... So the question to all of the expert out there is ... do you know how I would go about fixing this?

Boot to safe mode and remove any display adapters listed, then install your new driver and reboot. Hope this helps.

Check compatibility just to make sure the card will run on your present OS. I know this doesn't happen very often, but if you have a real old system (you didn't specify which one) and a modern hardware card......
