Try this........under Control Panel/Programs uninstall the present Nvidea
Video drivers
under Device Manager uninstall the video card.
Shut the system down and open the case.............make sure the card is
seated properly.
Restart and let Vista detect the card.............then install the Nvidea
Drivers...make sure they are Vista drivers from the Nvidea Website.
