now for ur information SP2 do get install in pireted system... well thats what we dont talk here...

so as u cant install SP then rather updateing the display driver i suggest u to downgrade it to pre SP1 stage.... see what happens...

& remmember MS relesed the SPs for avoiding this kind a trouble... now a days MS even stoped providing updates for even pre SP1 windows XP system... so that means all the latest drivers count that u r in SP1....

 

[Choto Cheeta]

another thing... did u tried that workaround suggested in ur link...

 

[ashu888ashu888]

Well yes i tried the WORKAROUND method and for the time being im not having any problems with the display....thanx for the suggestion dude... !!

cheers n e-peace.....

I request u to try installing an old driver(with bundled cd) and check, i dont think that forceware is for geforce cards.

Well Forceware r meant for GE FORCE cards i guess BRO! coz its given on nVIDIA's site that wich cards support the forceware....

But any other indication that is my Geforce card...gonna die soon !!! or my monitor gonna go corrupt ?? I hv a SAMSUNG 17" SyncMaster 753s for the past 2 years....and im using it at resolution of 1024x768 at 75Hz

cheers n e-peace....
