You may need to uninstall the Nvidia drivers, reboot back to a VGA system
and then reinstall. If that doesn't work you may have to uninstall the
nvidia drivers (again), then boot back to safe mode, run the driver cleaner
pro, reboot and reinstall.

Hello all,
I'm having a very odd problem. I was playing World of Warcraft today
(feeding the addiction) and my computer hung and then rebooted. Upon
reboot,
everything was very screwed up. I was getting weird stop codes (00BE,
000A,
0067 and 008E). Took the computer apart, vacuumed everything (it was
quite
dusty) - and then reseated everything back in place. Errors now fixed.
However, the video driver wasn't working. I think I tried everything -
uninstalling, installing, driver cleaning and nothing worked. Installed
the 91.33 nVidia drivers and when the drivers finished loading, I chose to
*not*
reboot immediately. Lo and behold, the driver was installed and I could
use
the nVidia console to change settings on the card. Rebooted the computer
and
nVidia drivers don't load and the VGASafe drivers load instead. What
could
be causing this? Should I just give up and reformat and try from a clean
install? Is there something in the registry that is preventing this from
installing? The few hairs left in my head are in grave danger of being
yanked! Please help!
Thanks,
Jeff
