Various Topics on Windows Vista

..Kolk..

Great news. My resolution is 2560 x 1600 on a 30" monitor and I have no
problem. I can even run DreamScene without a problem as long as the picture
is in a smaller section of the screen. When I make it full size for the full
screen, the problem comes back until I change the size of the picture (not
the resolution) and reboot. I am also using 158.24.

You are only the third person in all this time to respond positively to my
postings on this subject on various technical sites. I hope that others have
seen the problem go away also. Thank you for responding.

..ke.gerva.. ..tma..

I have found and fixed the problem today. This is what appears to
happen.
during the installation of the most current drivers 100.65 Vista, an
OLD file
nvlddmkm.sys is copied into windows/system32/drivers and not the
current one
in the install. As a result the new drivers are attempting to access a
file
dated 11/2006 instead of 2/2007 ver 7.15.11.0065 which is in the newest
WHQL
driver ver 100.65 vista 32.

Fix: Go to windows/system32/drivers and rename nvlddmkm.sys to
nvlddmkm.sys.old. Go to the nvidia directory and find the file
nvlddmkm.sy_
and copy it to windows/system32. Using the cmd window (DOS box) type
EXPAND.EXE nvlddmkm.sy_ nvlddmkm.sys. When the expansion is complete,
copy
the new nvlddmkm.sys to windows/system32/drivers and restart the
computer.


Your computer should now work properly.


You will notice that any uninstall and reinstall of nvidia drivers will
not
remove the old nvlddmkm.sys file and will not overwrite it with the
newer
version. You have to do it manually. I do not know why this happens
but who
cares as long it is fixed.


Good luck... nutcase911@gmail.com

"Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully
recovered." theres only one solution to this...put ur old xp OS back
on. I had the same trouble with fancy vista..it looks all nice and
clean but its a bag of ****e and the computere world aint ready for it
yet..I put back on my xp pro and i've had no probs since. (i've
searched the entire net and all its 1000 solutions ...non of them work)
