    Just posted "NVIDIA and VIA incompatible!". Read this and you'll get the answer you're looking for. :)
    Did once get a BSoD - and the NVIDIA driver was listed. From then on - no BSoD just reboots. :(

    The site is banned from guru3d (URL gets censored). Also hosting BIOS's are apparently illegal (us?).

    Turn PNP OS Installed to off in your bios.

    Usually under PNP/PCI configurations.

    Windows is retarded when managing IRQ's.
    See if that helps.

    Ok, lots of advice here. The 66.93 driver is the one you should go back to. There is another post about page fault in non paged area. I gave this very advice there. The entire 70 series drivers are incompatible with non 7800 series cards. All of the attempts to solve your problem won't work until you loose the 70 drivers. I figured it out. I had all of the same problems for a while too. Everything is fine now when reverting back to 60 something. You said it yourself that all the trouble started when you changed out the 66.93 set, right? I'm not God, but I can figure this out.

    SgtSquarenuts: We agree but I had to make sure the problem was not caused by someting else. It is indeed a fault in the NVIDIA drivers - and memory handling bugs usually results in hardcore reboots without BSoD.
    I'll stay with 66.93 until we reach 8x.xx. Then I'll try again. :)

    Btw, already reached 8x.xx
    you can find them here, from download-section, try those (80.40) and tell if something changed.

    tried the 80.40, no luck. mouse stoped to respond when playing hl2. when switching back to the desktop to open the taskmanger i got an error message. tried other programs, same error, only start menu worked but when trying to shut down the system via start menu nothing happened. now trying 77.77.
    rolling back to the 6*.** ones would be a problem when playing bf2 or am i wrong at that point?
    turning off pnp os in bios did not help.

    thx for the support so far.

    cheers

    2 things:

    1. DO NOT USE the last 4in1 VIA drivers, try these from mobo cd or latest from Asus site for this mobo.
    2. Try 4xAGP. Use NVTweak to unlock AGP menu in driver or use RivaTuner.

    Good Luck :p

    having a shop here with lots of spare parts .. i would have tried that video card in a different motherboard..
    and would have tried a different.. but same kind of video card in that motherboard..

    maybe .. that model.. or that series of video card will not work in that motherboard..
