hullo all

i've been tinkering with my new geforce 2 mx 400 64mb tv out card (thats a bit of a mouthful) using the tv out function which i am very impressed with.

basically... when i installed it windows 2k recognised the card installed the drivers and set it up without ever asking for a disk of drivers and it worked perfectly for about a week or so.
i then installed the latest nvidia drivers and the tv out function no longer works, i can select twinview but it only gives me the option of a second moniter not a tv.

i have tried uninstalling the nvidia drivers but when i do that windows doesn't revert back to the old drivers it goes into vga mode and the drivers origionally installed by windows can't be found.

i have tried using the windows update but something has gone screwy with win2k and that doesn't work either... does anyone know of any drivers that definatly work with twin view or any other thoughts on the matter really?

have u tried going to whoever makes the cards page and getting there version of the nvidia drivers, most makers like elsa keep there drivers very up to date and usually with there own touches in them
hope that helps

well... i have tried many many drivers now none of them seem to work... somebody suggested the wdm drivers.. no idea what they do but i installed them anyway but that didn't help either.

i have downloaded tvtool from www.tvtool.de and i can get tv out now but it is a bit flaky i havn't managed to get any games working on it but i can watch dvd and stuff
