Nvidia 71.2x Causing Crashes? Or defective Card?
Does the earlier driver for the Geforce 6600 cause Instability issues and or lockups? If anyone knows anything about Nvidia Drivers/Cards can you help me?

A way to find out, go to the nvidia website, and update the drivers for your video card, and see if the problem still occurs.

I explained in the hyperlink why I cant update to the latest drivers so I'm assuming you didnt read It. Im trying to find out if my graphics card is faulty because it constantly crashes, Im not sure wether its driver or card related.

Oh sorry, I didn't pay attention to the url. Try installing the video card on a different PC and see if the same problems occurs. The video card could have incompatibility issues with hardware on your PC.
