I've just built my first computer. I already had the graphics card from a previous system, nVidia Quadro FX 3400 PCIe 16x. On the new computer, the OS installs default VGA drivers. When I install nVidia drivers (old & new), the screen flashes, then goes black with a blinking cursor at the top left. I am not getting any tech help from manufacturers and am so frustrated. The system is as follows:
OS: Win XP Pro SP3.0
CPU: i5 750
MoBo: Gigabyte GA-P55-UD-3R
GPU: nVidia Quadro FX 3400 PCIe 16x
RAM: 4 GB (2 x 2MB) G. Skill Trident DDR3
HDD: WD Black Caviar 750 GB
PSU: Antec TP-750 750W
Case: CM Scout
Can anyone explain why the system crashes to a black screen when I install nVidia drivers?
Thank you in advance.
