I'M A GMAIL USER, PLEASE BE SURE YOUR REPLY GOES TO THE LIST. THANKS! Hey everyone!
I've got a slight problem here... I went to install the hardware I got from my friend... but the gforce card he gave me doesn't work when I boot from CD and try to start my install. As far as I know, the card is in perfect working order, though I suppose I could test this with a windows boot disk. I'll probably go grab the win98 boot disk and install CD from my car, after sending this email, to confirm that the video card is in working order. My original plan had been to switch over to the onboard video if the gforce card didn't play nice... but I then found out that I did not in fact have onboard video like my friend has told me I had. So I'm kinda stuck. Basically, I was under the impression that drivers included with the install CD would work, but wouldn't be as good as the nvidia ones, however that doesn't seem to be the case? Can anyone give me any suggestions how I can get something working so that I can at least get through the install, or how I could offer the correct drivers for the computer to use during the install process? Until I get this figured out, I'm stuck borrowing my dad's evil XP box whenever I want 'net access. So please, someone save me! I really don't want to have to go through the trouble of removing everything, and putting the old hardware back in, because I'm just going to have to take that all out and put the newer stuff back in once again once someone offers me a solution. ~~ >^..^< ~~ I'm a gmail user!
