Post subject:  nvidia display drivers
just tried to install the new 93.71 drivers for my 7900GT
was previously using the 91.64 drivers for xp (32 bit)

I uninstalled the old drivers first in add/remove, restarted my computer
tried to install the new drivers, except when it says.. now installing nvidia display device drivers, it does it within 2 seconds

it says no system change has been made, to try again another time run setup again...tried doing that, restarting pc etc, have tried driver cleaner 3 to remove nvidia stuff.. didnt work.

tried installing the old drivers, same problem.
o and i had Anti virus software turned off during install (avg)
help!. i have no nvidia display drivers installed.. :(

also i dont have anything displayed under Device manager anymore .. unless i go to safe mode...

:(

i hope i dont have to re-format...again..im getting very annoyed.. might just reinstall windows this time rather than format if thats the case.

Did you used driver cleaner or something similar before installing the new ones?

nope..

rite i just did a system restore to yesterday.. appears to work..

will just have to test everything..

however i have a suspicion that if i try to update nvidia drivers ever again it will do the same thing

so :/

nothing is listed under device manager.. strange..(except in safe mode)

so i wonder if device manager has been gone all that time and i only just noticed now..

this could be a related issue with when i swapped my motherboard after it had been RMA'd..perhaps (without another install as it was the same model)

why else would nothing show up in device manager??

the one about plug and play service not started was not the case...

hmmm
