When you get this message look at the this c:\documents and settings\kelly\desktop\nvidia_wxp_omega_15303\driv erkx\quality
and delete the quality or performance part and should install 15303\drivekx\ (then delete the Performance or the Quality it should install) |

You need to install the drivers manually, do not use the .exe.
c&p'd from the help file of your drivers. Hope this helps. How to install the nvidia Omega drivers (WinXP): 1- Close all programs 2- Right Click "My Computer" in your desktop and select "properties" OR press "start" and do the above 3- Go to the "Hardware" TAB, then click on "Device Manager" 4- Expand the "display adapters" icon 5- Double click your video adapter 6- Go to the "driver" TAB 7- Click on the "Update Driver" button 8- Select "Install from a list...", click "Next" 9- Select "Don't search. I will choose...", click "Next" 10- Press the "Have Disk..." button 11- Press "Browse" to look for the folder where the drivers where extracted, inside it you will find a folder named "DriverKX", this is where the drivers are located, press "Open" after the INF is displayed in the upper window, click "OK" 12- You video card should be displayed in the list and already be selected, click "Next" 13- Windows will warn you that the drivers are not signed, just click "Continue Anyway" to force the installation 14- The drivers shall now install, if Windows asks you if you want overwrite a newer files that is already installed in your PC, SAY YES, REPLACE THE NEWER FILES, if you don't overwrite them the drivers will not work as intended and could make Windows crash unable to boot. After that just press "finish", "close" and you will be prompted to restart you PC, say "yes". 15- Done!, Enjoy!
