Yet more highly irritating comp. troubles.

Postby mrjake2002 » Sat Oct 13, 2007 3:31 pm

Ok, so my new card, Inno3D GeForce 8600 GT, arrived to day and I installed it. I removed the old card, installed the new one and then installed the drivers. Then, i ran FS9 to see what it looked like, I was pleased to see that it was looking and running very well. All was going great until I downloaded the new drivers from the Nvidia site... now it looks like crap again, exactly the same as with my old card! I have not yet recieved my new PSU or RAM yet so I'm still using a 300W PSU and only 1 Gig of RAM, could this be the problem? The thing that troubles me is that it looked great but now looks awful again on the same settings...  :-/

Please help me!!!!
