6600GT AGPX8 Proview ,on a ASUS CUV-4x with PentiumIII with SDRAM 768MB RAM 133Mhz

Previously i have bought 6600GT 128mb AGPX8 Proview ,on a ASUS CUV-4x with PentiumIII with SDRAM 768MB RAM 133Mhz at Windows Xp and the only driver that works semi-normal is the Omega Driver 61.77. It works fine with all the games except Half Life2.It has major problem with the video overlay on TV-out , the video Zoom is not working.

My ex-video cards (GeForce2 mx400 and GeForce4 mx440-Se) were working perfectly with any nvidia or omega driver.

I have tried yesterday to install the latest Nvidia official driver 71.89 and i had major problems with all the games at the level of textures and 3d models , all were scrambled up.
The same results i've got with the latest Omega Driver (1.66.93) .

What is the problem? could be the old-tech componets of my pc? (pentium3 867Mhz & 768mb sdram 133Mhz, agp4x motherboard)

All that time I had tuned my bios as the omega drivers site suggests.

Thanks, for any upcoming help

It seems that there is a hardware mulfunction. I could buy your card for €10 if you'd like.

Don't sell... Ignore that first post... Okay, so well, try using drivercleaner and reinstall the drivers. It's possible that it's the porblem. Or do a full format and try to reinstall the drivers after the format. If the problem still persits, try the card in another PC and see if it runs. Anyways there is no point in running it in your current PC cuz that thing is just not letting your card run well. You are CPU bottlnecked and BIG time....

Thanks sandok. I m gonna try the driver remover. Before the installation of the 6600 i had just format. Unfortunately this pc i ve got is the most "new" than the other two i have (pentium2 amd celeron 700).

In a few days i m gonna post the "latest news"
