Installing Nvidia Geforce Card

I bought Nvidia Geforce Card for a dual boot HP Pavillion running XP and RC1.
I need help in installing the card. On which of the partitions do I install
it first. How do I avoid problem of blank screen after installing the card.

Re: Installing Nvidia Geforce Card

THere is a good chance you will get a blank screen no matter what you do if
you are installing 96.33.
I just pull the plug and restart. It works for me. I then re-run the
installer to get the control panel installed(even though it has NO
functionality yet...)

Well my Nvidia card has all the fusctyionality on both the XP and Visat sides
of my OS's. I have not had any problems with any of the updated drivers.
Everything works great for me.
