Ok.  I was recently trying to upgrade my driver for the Nvidea Riva TNT2 graphics card and I could not.  It said that the new update was not compatible, even though I took the TNT2 download straight from their site.

It turns out that I needed to uninstall my old driver before the new one could be installed.  I did this and ran the new update, but the same problem occured.  I tried to roll back the driver but it said that no backup exists and now I'm running programs out of Task Manager because the Windows desktop interface and all that won't load at all.

Please help!

Don't buy a cheap video card. It will make more problems for you.

Do you have your graphics running on or off board at this point?

AYIEN IS RIGHT. IF YOU BUY A CHEAP CARD IT WILL ONLY GO BAD SOONER THEN PLANED. WITH ELETRONICS ESPECIALY COMPUTER PARTS YOU CANT GO CHEAP IN COST. THIS EFFECTS PREFORMENCE AND EFFENCEY
