Problem with nvidia drivers

[The_Codfather]

Ok so i tried to install the newest drivers from nvida however after i install them i rebbot then when it comes to load the welcome screen my monitor acts as if there is no signal.

To correct it i have to start in safe mode then use system restore. Atm i am using the drives that came with my card 77.03 or something. As you can see i am quite out of date if the latest ones are 84. something.

I have an AGP 6600GT.

I have also tried other drivers however none work that are over the ones that i have at the moment.

Thanks in advance.

try running driver cleaner, in safe mode, to completely remove the old drivers.

81.85s should be good the new 84's are betas.

this might sound a bit odd but it worked for me .......when you shut down the pc .......turn off the power at the wall as well.

that was the only cure i had for a similar "no signal" problem.

i still don't know what caused the problem or why the power shut off fixed it.
