I tried to upgrade to the latest n' greatest at home (previous comments was about the work system) from MSI supplied drivers. Me and the box are back to almost normal now, but it had me pulling my hair there for a while. I'm using two monitors – The main is a 19" Nokia run at 1600x1200@85Hz and the secondary is a 15" Hyundai at considerably lesser rez. Well, the new drivers decided that the Hyundai was the Nokia and tried running it at 1600x1200 (resulting in a black screen) and naturally the Nokia showed up at that 1152x8?? resolution the other one should've run at.

The nView settings were set so that new windows primarily should pop up on the bigger screen which now was black. This made it impossible for me to enter the Display properties to change the monitors back to the way they should be. Dang!

After fiddling for a while I realised I could just switch the two connectors at the back of the vid card and I was back on the road again. Somehow my little Hyundai didn't like being told to work at 1600x1200 and now it won't go higher than 800x600.

Guess I need a replacement...

The GA looks great though

The GA looks great though Still Happy Turtle Thanks to Morgan, Tiny Snapshots is up and running again with "Tiny Järvafält" as the latest addition – Go have a look and tell me what you think. "We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita. Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says, 'Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.' I suppose we all thought that, one way or another." /Robert Oppenheimer on witnessing the first thermonuclear detonation in history.
