Hi

How do you know if it's your graphics card driver that's causing this?
I don't see anything in that BSOD that says it's caused by the graphics driver. Is there more info you have here?

Re: Cant get a driver for geforce 6200

when i reboot it brings up the message that an error occurred and i click the check for solutions button and it gives me a link to nvidias site. I assume its the graphics card because It only blue screens when i try to do something graphics intensive.
Yes it is the same comp, It has an asus m2a-vm motherboard, 4gb of ram, amd 5200+ processor andthe nvidia 6200 series card in it.

Brunboy, not about solving the driver problem, just giving my opninion: you're performance would be a lot better with a new GPU. Look at an 8800GT or somethin' if you don't want too expensive Newegg.com - 8800 GT, Desktop Graphics / Video Cards... That is if you need the performance boost off course...

Re: Cant get a driver for geforce 6200

Curious choice of graphic card, Amplid is giving you good advice when he says to change it.
In light of your problems I would suggest doing another new install, if for no other reason than to see if you get the same problems a second time.
As it stands you are going nowhere that fast anyway.

Let me know how you get on.
