Operating System: Windows Vista - Home Premium PC Experience: Pc Guru | As a side note - you are always better off going the manufacturer of the components to download the drivers -
MOBO's eg ABIT,ASUS and GIGABYTE etc
GPU- these may be made by ASUS or GIGABYTE etc but they are still reference designs made by NVIDIA and ATI/AMD and you are better off with the NVIDIA and AMD/ATI drivers.

Operating System: XP MCE / Basic / Premium PC Experience: Intermediate | Yes, I usually do go to NVidia, but will check out Gigabyte as well.
Have installed the new drivers and will delete all the errors, see what happens from now on.
Cheers

Operating System: Windows Vista - Home Premium PC Experience: Pc Guru | No problem - I will leave the thread open until you install the new drivers and see if the errors in the log goes away.

Operating System: XP MCE / Basic / Premium PC Experience: Intermediate | UPDATE
Went to play a video tonight and no player (and I have quite a few) would play anything other than sound, so ended up doing a System Restore, LOL.
I dunno!! The new NVidia drivers appeared to have installed OK, but....
