RE: XP games to Vista

guys guys, i have a

AMD athlon 64 3500+
geforce 7600GT
2gb ram

after installing vista i tryed installing my geforce's drivers, i use 91.X
if i remember right, however the drivers arnt recognized by the os, after
rebooting its like i didnt install the drivers at all, when i go to
properties>display settings>advance> i dont see the aditional nvidea tab with
all the options, i tryed unistalling the drivers, and installing the latest
drivers from nvideas site that didnt help either, also tryed the windows
vista compatible nvidea drivers and didnt work 2.
I also tryed runing counter strike 1.6, but it starts up and crashes
immidiately after 3 seconds.
so i was wondering if any1 had the same problems (with the drivers, and
runing games like cs) and can help me out.

thnx
