Have you reviewed your BIOS settings? Check the settings for your PnP/PCI Configurations. There will be some wording like Resources Controlled by: XXXX, if it's not set to AUTO, set it that way. Save the settings and exit. Re-boot.

Let us know your results. If that doesn't work, we'll need your motherboard make and model, and any other PCI and PCI-e cards you have installed.

I also found an MS page (here) that may help regarding nVidia cards.

Some BIOSes have a setting for "Palette Snoop," if your BIOS has that setting, make sure it is set to OFF .

When I googled the conflict with VGAsave, there were numerous hits. I couldn't find a definitive solution, but the consensus was to uninstall the VGA drivers, install updated mobo and chipset drivers, and re-install the latest VGA drivers.

Try this:
-- Uninstall the drivers for the 6800.
-- Re-boot.
-- Go here, and download the software/drivers for your board (I couldn't find your board with the info you wrote earlier).
-- Identify your board's chipset (if it is intel, go here to get the latest chipset drivers), if the chipset is not intel, google to find and download the latest chipset drivers.
-- Download the latest drivers for your 6800.
-- Install the board's drivers.
-- Re-boot.
-- Install the board's chipset drivers.
-- Re-boot.
-- Re-install the latest drivers for the 6800.
-- Re-boot.
