I currently own a 6800 gt running forecware 81.98

ive tried to instal the newest nvidia drivers, yet it wont instal. About half way it says there are no drivers available to support your hardware.

ive uninstalled the video drivers before hand, still no go..i ran the Driver cleaner, still no go..

Im at a loss here.

Anyone have any ideas

PS- They were the x64 versions

Thanks,

Wait, so are you running Windows XP x64, right?
If so, then just try to make sure that your card is supported in the nv4_disp.inf

Do you know what your video card's device ID is?
And you didn't really answer my question: are you using Windows XP x64 or 32-bit? I assume from your sig you're using x64?
