rolleyes Serious Problem please help

Hey, I posted this over at guru3d but didnt really get any good replys so i thought i would post here,

I downloaded the WHQL international drivers from nvidias site and installed them, And now after a while my comp just totally crashes and i have to turn of and back on for it to work again,

This has only happened since the 56.64 and now when i go back to any other version the same thing happens and it didnt before.

Any ideas what the problem is thanks?

Windows XP Home
Intel Pentium 4 CPU 3.06ghz
Giga-Byte Technology 82845G/GL/GE Brookdale Host-H

NVIDIA GeForce FX 5600

Driver Issues

If you are running XP do a Repair if you have reinstalled the Drivers .Anytime i make a change to my Pc i set a restore point and make 100% sure you have turned off AntiVirus Software and anything else running.If you don't know how to do a Repair someone Including myself will put you in the right place to get it fixed by going to Google.com and search for Repair XP just be sure to set your Cdrom as first Boot device.
Disclaimer:I am in no way responsible for any mistake you may make from reading my thread it is only for Educational Purposes only Use at your own risk.I also keep three Harddrives in my Pc and have everything backed up i hope you do if not i would seriously consider doing it because it sounds like you have Registry Problems of some kind after the Driver Install/Uninstall.
