i just installed win2k pro on my sister's computer (upgrading from winME, winXP would not set up properly) win2k installed with no problem (did clean install, reformatted to NTFS)
the only problen now is her video card. she has an nVIDIA 32MB GeForce2 MX 4X video card (the computer is a Dell Dimension 4100, like from 2001 or 02) and nVIDIA no longer offers the drivers for this card on their site. i tried to install a generic nVIDIA driver and now her installation is ruined (blue screen, physical memory dump or something like that) and i have to reformat/install. bleh.
anyhow, this time around, i was wondering if there's a better way to do things. is there any driver that will work??? the reason i need one is because she only has 16-color mode and 800x600 max resolution.
any help would be great. thanks=]

Windows updates with usually have upgraded drivers for video if you have no luck finding them at Nvidia. I would look at Dells site as they should have drivers for the card on the list of drivers for her computer if it came with it when it was new.

When you installed Windows 2000 didn't it load a generic driver?
Windows will usually load generic drivers for your hardware.

Alternatively, you can search for "Detonator" drivers, as what's older NVidia drivers are called (Which is also the time where GeForce 2 cards are still supported greatly.)

Go to http://support.dell.com
You can put in your service tag and download the driver specifically for your PC there.
