    Maybe this should be under hardware.

    NVidia Geforce 210 on a MSI 975X Platinum V2 motherboard.

    everything runs fine with the "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter" driver that gets loaded with Windows 7. Then I load the NVidia 210 driver and when it reboots it all goes to a black screen.

    tried a Nvidia 220 with the same results. Both cards work fine in my other computer.

    its has ATI cross fire technology but i've read any PCI-e will work if sing only one card

    should i try install the card in the other (lower) PCE X16 slot or get a ATI PCI-e Card?

    hope someone out there knows the fast cut

    Placed card in lower slot...failed to work with right driver, went back to standard.

    Alls left to try is buying an ATI card which is meant for crossfire.

    is it the card? the motherboard?, BIOS?, OS??

    I tried with XP, VIsta and Win7 so it's not the OS

    the card works in my other computer?

    Changed setting in BIOS..maybe I missed something

    can there be a flaw in the MOBO that does the driver malfunction?

    Help LOL
