i updated the drivers recently but the onboard gpu and ram stopped working so i had to reinstall the drivers that came on the cd

What do you mean the RAM stopped working?

Right it sounds like you have a conflict - you need to DISABLE the onboard graphics from within the BIOS - have you ever done this?

everytime i ram a game or anything that would need my graphics card i kept getting an error. rundll32.exe application error.

when i went to properties and graphics card vga clock it showed on the core clock and memory clock 0mhz and i couldnt put it up.

i went to device manager and it said this device has no resources to use or something like that. it happened on the nvidia 175.19 update and the geoforce power pack drivers.

and no i have never disabled my onboard graphics card from my bios

Right you CANNOT have 2 forms of GPU running so onbaord should ALWAYS be disabled if you have an add in card.

Version:175.19Release Date:July 9, 2008

These are still the latest drivers for your card.

I would look in the BIOS and disable the onboard VGA, save and exit.
Also what process do you use to remove all the other older drivers - have you ever deleted the older ones stored in C:/Nvidia?

[froggymasud]

how do i get into the BIOS
when i install the a different nvidia driver it overwrites any drivers already installed
but i have never manually deleted the files in C:nvidia

[Dalo Harkin]

NO - it doesn't overwrite anything -
Whenever there is a new driver available, you must go to add/remove programs there is NVIDIA DRIVERS in there - remove them - navigate to C:/Nvidia and then delete the file - then reboot
THEN install the new driver -
the problem you will be having is that you will have a numerous amount of drivers all trying to run and they are basically crashing your system.
Do as stated above and then reinstall the NVIDIA drivers you have (latest ones from previous)

[froggymasud]

ok i will do that but how do i get into the BIOS and disable the onboard graphics card

[Dalo Harkin]

depending on the motherboard - when the POST screen comes on and tells you the CPU speed and RAM installed HDD's etc (the black screen with white writing)
at the bottom of the page it will tell you how to enter but its normally the delete key.

hi

thanks. i did what you said and the game worked.

but when i uninstalled the nvidia drivers and restarted my ethernet connector's driver on my motherboard have gone and i cannot connect to the internet.(im using laptop)

since i cant connect to the internet where do i get the drivers form

[Dalo Harkin]

Chances are that you have an Nforce Motherboard on your Laptop - insert the driver disk that came with the motherboard and they should be on there.
