From bad to worse

MSI G4 4200 Ti-TD drivers 52.16
Windows XP

I just cannot get 3D enabled with this card under XP. I've tried loads of
drivers... with no go. Now I cannot see the Display adaptor under device
manager - if I try and add new hardware the card is listed but when clicked
I have this error:

Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration
information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)

wtf?

windows knows what card I have - why can I not get this thing going!!

Maybe because you have a corrupt registry.

Try the system restore feature in XP.

I had this also. Only thing that worked for me is a repair re-install on
top of the installed version. It rebuilt my Registry. Then, had to do all
the updates/service pack install.

Hi,

I just installed the 52.16 drivers for my Ti4200 on
yesterday and it runs fine.

Try change the resolution to VGA mode then go to device
manager and remove the Ti4200 adapter and reboot. The
found new hardware wizard may appear and search for the
drivers, close it down and ignore the warning message.
Now, disable the antivirus software and double click the
downloaded 52.16 drivers and let it install the drivers
and then reboot.

Hope it helps.

Peter

You have a damaged registry. System restore is your first option. If you
have made a system backup of some type then you can also try this. Should
that fail as well then you'll need to perform a clean install. There is a
slim chance that Norton Utilities can fix this so if you have Norton
Utilities see if this can repair the registry. If you do not have Norton
Utilities then try this free registry repair tool which fixes the first six
sections only in the trial version. I haven't used this product so I have no
idea if it works well or not. Perhaps one more option for you to try might
be an NVIDIA driver cleaning tool which is found here:

Cheers - I think a clean install is the least painful option... but bet I'll
be back!

Yo, dude. Cut it on the caps already. There was no need for that at all.
Besides, this question was already answered about 3 or 4 times with
perfectly valid answers. Your answer however won't fix a corrupted
registry.
