Before when I previously had Windows XP... I installed CS .. ok worked fine thought I would get a better FPS performance if I upgraded to the latest nVidia drivers then when I load any DX games it would boot then show the back screen(then disconnect my monitor from the computer)...


OK Then it was format time I installed Win2K same thing..

Now I'm back on Win 98 gaming :D

I want to get back on Win2K at least good OS :P

If your system works OK under Win98 and not under Win2K or WinXP then I would look at a driver issue. Go back to the latest Microsoft approved drivers.

Wondering if anyone had this problem with CS and latest Denator drivers?
Yes no?

nVidia's latest drivers (I think the .83?) are HORRID
I've had quite a few problems with games that worked fine with the previous drivers..but since I'm now running XP, I'm suck with 'em till an update comes out :mad:
