Please help me!
 
I cannot get games to run through XP. The OS itself is very stable, but when I try to run games, it will crash back to the desktop. Windows error reports ask me if I want to send information about my Nvidia card to Microsoft. Could this be my video drivers? What are the most stable video drivers? Should I have to run my game sin compatibility mode? Chekc out my PC and please help me. Email me. Thanks.

best driver to use is the 21.85 they have it on visiontek.com
or the best certified driver is 21.83
 
only known problem i know of is all games have joystick support built in
know if you installed your controller ( example Gravis doesnt have XP drivers yet ) now if you connected it and windows XP claims they have installed drivers and you go in the contol panel and its working it really isnt........... without the proper drivers and it causes games not to start-up

I use the 21.85s from Visiontek for my Visiontek Geforce3 Ti200. I have no problems at all.
