I recently tried installing some new drivers for my Nvidia Geforce 6200 Graphics Card, and I downloaded the newest driver from the Nvidia site. After installing the driver, I was prompted to restart my computer but I decided to do so later. I then remembered that my dad had told me about Omega Drivers. These are drivers that are not made by Nvidia, but are excellent, and increase the performance of your graphics card. I decided then, to download and install this driver also. After being prompted for the second time to restart my computer, I did so. After the restart, this is what I got: I cannot do anything since I have no time. If I click something, the computer freezes until brought to the black screen at the end of the video, and I've been attempting to repair things with the windows XP cd's repair command screen, where I can do all of the "start-run-cmd" commands. I then disabled the omega driver, thinking it was the problem: C:\>disable NVSvc But to no luck, nothing happened, and I still get stuck on the diagonal lines. Also, those lines change colors each time I restart my computer. Anyone have any ideas? EDIT: I read up just now on the Nvidia forums that I'm not the only person to be getting this problem. Except those people have much better video cards; they have 7xxx series card and better. All they needed to do was overclock the card by about 5mhz and they were ok. I think it's different for my card since I don't have factory overclocking or internal overclocking for the memory/core.
omega drivers are mainly for ATI cards (ATI drivers suck). Nvidia's own drivers are good enough. Regardless, problems like this occur when you install drivers without removing the old ones first. To fix it, boot your computer into safe mode with networking (press f8 as soon as windows starts to load and you'll get a menu). In safe mode, uninstall both the omega drivers and the official nvidia ones, but don't restart. Instead download this http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XBXU9BJO , install it and run. choose 'nvidia' and 'nvidia WDM' from the list and click clean. Once you are done, you should be able to restart normally and install the official drivers.
