    Make sure you un-install any pervious driver first

    On my system, installing the new driver did not remove the old driver.

    Had to go into safe mode to un-install both drivers to get my video back.....

    Once it's workings, I did notice a picture quailty in windows and direct X games improved. Performance increased in windows desktop, performance dropped on games (Morrowind) :(

    Note: My system is a 1ghz Athlon (nonxp) on a Geforce 3 - Ti200 running on Windows XP SP1 Pro with 256 mb ram PC133.
