Graphic card problem after sp2
Hi everyone,been a lurker for a while and managed to find what i need untill now so i ask for your help now and thankyou for previous help you have given .Yesterday I dl sp2 for xp installed and rebooted with no issues until I tried changing settings on gc (hercules 3d prophet 4500 tv out)and found that sp2 had installed its own generic drivers,I then try to install oem drivers and get an error saying previous version of drivers installed please uninstall..ok done reboot try again same error(cannot find any other versions) so I uninstall sp2 and reboot I now have sp1.5 on my system as it did not revert back to original I have no restore points before sp2 although i made one and The computer still cannot find the gc just the generic windows junk.any help would be greatly appreciated I am sure its something stupid but I cant see it.btw the only version of the drivers to be found anywhere are on c drive and i am trying to install on d: sp2 didnt affect c: .

I would have suggested doing a repair install instead of a complete format. Now that you reformatted it, do you successfully have SP2 + your proper video drivers working correctly?
So far I have not been succesful in running sp2 with graphics driver its an old card and i should upgrade but i dont want to as it has served my purposes adequatly and still is just not on sp2,I read on a forum that sometimes an older set of drivers may be worth a try, i will try but i dont hold out much hope.I am going to leave sp2 for a few more weeks before I try again as I have been led to believe its still very buggy a work in progress so to speak.
ty for belated assistance lol
