I read a lot of times that having your grafic-drivers up to date is very important.
But every time I try to update the drivers for my Nvidia Geforce 8800 Gt, it fails. Let me explain.
First of all, the installation makes no problems. Everything works fine so far. But the first issue is, that when I try to open the control panel, it sometimes (I tried it a lot of times with different versions of drivers) says that the Controllpanel got a problem and can't be started. Not after every installation, but very often.
Next thing is, that all my games are now totally unstable. I tried it with different games. Oblivion, Gothic 3, etc causes a Bluescreens after 10-15 minutes of playtime, and other strange things. The speed is better anyway, because my current drivers are from 2008 or 2007, don't know exactly, I'm not at home currently.
Okay, as I said, I tried a lot of different driver-versions, and also re-installation and so on. Only the one I'm currently using is working. If I reinstall that one, everything works fine.
So, has anyone got an Idea? Maybe my Graficscard is damaged, don't know. Maybe someone has got a similar issue. I would really like to update my drivers, maybe I would get a few fps more with Dolphin^^
I'm using WinXp32bit, which is running for about 3 years without reinstalling, but I had to let a repairinstallation run over for a few times, maybe it also depends on my Windows. But I would like to hear what you think that I should do. Any solutions? Thanks in Advance.
