    Vidieo driver problems

    Alright, I'm an intense gamer, and recently i have been playing some games, and they would crash. This mostly happened when something came up on the screen like a big explosion or something. Since this happened with multiple games, i decided to get new drivers for my Nvidia GeForce 6200. I went to this site http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_163.75.html
    and downloaded new drivers. I installed them, and restarted my computer. Right before selecting a user account, the screen went black and the monitor power light turned yellow, as it usually is when the screen is in sleep mode. So, i restarted in Safe Mode, and tried re installing it again. Same result. So, once again i went into save mode, and i switched to my integrated on board chip set, and now 'm trying to figure out how to get it to work...

    Did you uninstall the old nVidia display drivers before loading new ones?

    No, i didn't; how do i un-install them, just delete the files?

    Go to start > Control Panel > Add or remove programs.

    Go to nVidia drivers. Choose remove. If offered a selection of drivers choose only display drivers.

    Your computer will then reboot and you can install the latest version for your card.
