pc problem

[Grim Reaper]

whenever i try to change the res setting. all i get is a black screen. after a minute or so. then the pc will restart. is there a glitch with the nvidia driver updates?

HP Pavilion P6210Y
Windows 7 Home Premium 64Bit
Nvidia GeForce 9100

the pc isnt a month old yet.

What monitor are u using, it may not be approved to play at 1080p.

im not trying to watch blu-ray movies. and, i know my monitor doesnt support 1080p. cuz, when i install the latest update for the video card. all i get is a black screen.

[agentsculli]

unless u need to update stick with the older driver until someone can work out the problem.

[Grim Reaper]

for some reason. when i dont install anything for it. it works fine.

It's not always wise to use microsoft drivers for your hardware. On many occasions I've seen these updates cause the hardware to stop working. Try and stick with the drivers from the manufacturer or hardware vendor and just install the security and software updates from M$.

ive tried the updates from both MS & Nvidia. i still get the black screen.

i formated and installed everything. now its working. but, when i install the updates from Nvidia's site. it starts all over again. but, it works fine with MS's updates.

try changing the resolution in the nvidia control panel , i have heard people having problems with these cards on windows 7 specially with the latest drivers.

[Grim Reaper]

already tried that plenty of times.

its mostly likely a software issue between the card and windows 7 i would find a different version to use.

thanks computergeek

[Grim Reaper]

figured out what the problem was. i had my external hdd plugged in. but, when i try to install the official nvidia update. i still get a black screen. but, the ms update works fine. but my monitor wont display in 1680x1050. its not even listed anymore.
