Disabling VIA Tech CPU to AGP Controller
KINGHILL15
HI. I have an Abit KT7A-RAID mobo, with a Geforce2 GTS by Leadtek.

I installed a fresh copy of WinXP on Saturday. The built-in 12. 40 drivers worked fine but I wanted to install the official 12. 41s. I downloaded and ran the Nvidia installer and rebooted and 12. 41 worked like a champ until I tried to reinstall 12.
