Installer Error

[Rich88]

Everytime now i try to install a new driver for my video card or try to roll back the drivers i get an error.

The error says: Device installer error: Windows could not load the installer for display.

Anyone have any idea? Help would be great.

Your system specs would help!!

Have you tried completely uninstalling the video drivers?

Also any antivirus software you are running should be disabled when installing or uninstalling drivers.

Dell computer 512mb ddr ram
pentium 4 processor 2.66 ghz
windows xp home edition
40gb hdd
nvidia geforce fx 5200 128 mb video card

I've tried uninstalling the card and reinstalling the card but i got the same error. I had to restore my computer to get the drivers back.

In the past when i updated the drivers it did fine. It seems like an all of a sudden thing.

NvM i fixed it i uninstalled windows xp sp2 and reinstalled it and that seemed to do the trick.

I had the same probelm before. I hve to unistall Windows XP SP2 and then install the display adapter driver. Everything was working fine. Finally I reistall SP2.
Hope this will work for you.

Re-installing SP2 seems over the top. Try this first:
Find "desk.cpl" in c:\windows\system32\dll cache and copy it to system32.
