Latest nVidia Driver not working in Win 7:
Hi
I have just installed Win 7 onto a partition on my machine:
• MoBo: ASUS P5N32-e SLi Bios Revision 1203
• Processor: Intel E6750 2.66 MHz
• Video Card: nVidia GeForce 8600GT
• Memory: 2 x 2048 Mb DDR2 PC2-5300 (333Mhz)
• Dual Monitors: 1680 x 1050 and 1280 x 1024
My system is dual boot - running Win XP & Win 7 very successfully.
When I try to change the resolution using the standard Win 7 drivers - the screens go black and I have to restore the OS (the system doesn't crash as such). When I install the latest nVidia Driver (191.07) the same thing happens - garbled screen for a few seconds then blackness (in fact the monitors show they are not receiving a signal)
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there something else I need to upgrade or install first? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
