Default Old computer nvidia driver problem - 12-30-2010, 18:44 | posts: 1

Hey guys! Dont know if Im posting this right, hope you'll have mercy if so.

I just put together an gaming comp from all my friends old things. It keeps crashing when I try to install nvidia graphics drivers.

Problem: Hangs as soon as desktop loads and graphics driver icon appears in status bar.

Motherboard: EPoX EP-8KDA3J - nForce3 250gb
CPU: AMD64 Athlon 2800+
MEM: 1.5 gb (3*512) - 1*double side, 2 * single side
HDD: 500 gb SATA
Network: Motherboard nForce Controller
Etc: Realtek Audio AC'97, Sony DVD-ROM DDU1621

Graphics: Geforce 7800 GS (AGP), Geforce 6600 GT (AGP)
Both tried same problem. Of course wanna use the 7800.

Tried drivers Forceware: 92.91, 169.21, 169.89, 260.89, 260.99 (latest)

Tried installing only the graphics drivers, with all other drivers, without audio drivers, unpluggin dvd, chaning between the graphics cards, switching AGP Fast Write on and off in BIOS.

Donno if this is understandable, but I trust in the public brains
Thanks for helping!
