    Graphics Card is Geforce 6800GT
    I have just updated the drivers for this card - I unistalled the old ones first as advised on the Nvidia website then installed the updated ones.
    Now there is graphic problems with certain games like Half Life 2 - ie, see through walls,weird colors, missing characters - basically just messed up - any one had this problem and what can I do to sort it - any other info that is needed just shout.

    Thanks in advance.

    Version: 78.01
    Had the same problem with the drivers before this version - so I just did a system restore to put it back to normal - just done another one now.

    Did you use drivercleaner link http://www.drivercleaner.net/ to clean up after you unistalled your old driver, i would also recomend using this driver 78.03-hd.v2 from here http://www.tweaksrus.com/index.php?option=com_docman&task=cat_view&gid=127&Itemid=41/ ... heres how to use if you don't know after you have installed driver cleaner.....
    1. unistall old driver via control panel> system> hardware> device manager> display adapters> driver> unistall
    2. restart in safe mode> run driver cleaner
    3. reastart in to windows
    4. install driver
    5. restart and all should be well
    Hope this helps ;)
