I've got a problem with my AGP 6800 vanilla. When I install the drivers on XP, it installs fine. I reboot the PC, it will show the Welcome screen and then the screen will immediately go black when the drivers load in. If i boot in safe mode it will load into Windows no problem. I've tried a few driver versions: 61.77 +- a few revisions (which are available on Nvidia's XP archive) and 9X.XX also available from Nvidia's archive, and all will make the screen immediately go black. The driver on the CD also has the same issue. I don't think there is no video signal, I think it is sending a black signal...
The thing is I seem to recall having the same issue with a 5950 years ago, possibly when it was current. At that time it only happened in XPSP3 (possibly 2 too). Right now I am intalling XPSP0 to see if the issue still occurs.
Has anyone experienced this before?
