Default GeForce/nForce Driver problems


Hiyas!

I've got a computer that I'm having problems getting the display drivers
working properly. On a clean WinXP install I am attempting to install the
Nvidia GeForce and nForce drivers, but after installing both, Windows will
only boot in safe mode until I uninstall one or the other. This happens
with and without downloading all the critical updates from
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com . Any suggestions on what could be going
wrong here? Thanks!

Windows XP Home
Asus A7N8X Delux motherboard
GeForce 4 MX440 video card

I believe the Nforce driver set contains the latest (or very recent) Geforce
graphics driver anyway, so no need to install them separately. Try just
installing Nforce, and leave it at that. Something is evidently conflicting
between the two. Also make sure you have the latest from Nvidia's website,
rather than just using the CD that comes with the motherboard.
