Sure this is something easy but...

My computer said my windows xp pro was corrupt and needed to re-install it...so i did, and now when i scroll it goes really slow, like it replays the page over, flickering, very sore on the eyes ! Anyone any idea what this is...i'm sure its probably some setting thats been changed with the installation...

You need to install a graphics card driver.

Yeh thats what i thought...downloaded the nvidia driver but when installing i get the message

The Nvidia setup program could not locate any drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. Setup will now exit

Any ideas how to fix this?

What motherboard do u have, you may have onboard gfx causing a problem.

What you could try doing, if you haven't already, is enter device manager in windows. Make sure that under "Display Adapters" you have any devices that aren't your nvidia card disabled. Then restart and try to install the proper drivers again. I'm assuming there's some conflict where the nvidia software is detecting a different device than the one you want it to.

[deeloughran]

In Device Manager there is no 'display adapters' maybe it is the unknown device under the 'other devices'? should i uninstall this then restart my computer and try to install the driver again?

[NightshadowUK]

Yep, take off any display drivers you installed, restart, and then install the latest ones.

Dont forget to install your motherboard chipset drives as well.

I've had a similar issue with earlier nVidia cards and solved it by installing an earlier driver set; nVidia's driver support for older generation products is patchy at best. I suggest trying, say, the 61.77 driver set from HERE and see if that works. Remember to pull the one's you've already installed off the machine via Add/Remove Programs prior to installing, though. Dom's right too. If you don't have the right chipset drivers installed first, your graphics card install will have problems.

Might also be worth using Driver Cleaner (version 3?) to completely clean up all traces of the drivers. Especially important when downgrading to an older driver version.

BTW, where did you get the card from? It's not an old OEM one out of a Dell or Aldi PC is it?

[deeloughran]

Is there a link to download the motherboard chipset driver? That driver nichomach sent me won't save on my computer, says their is a problem

I bought it from Millenium Computers...a company off Ebay
