Thanks for your reply nuhi. I did do a cd install. No manual install. I personally don't like manual installs. There were also some strange things that i found out and will explain. In the start menu at the top where ie and outlook reside, usually it says Internet Explorer and Outlook Express. But it doesn't say that. It says Internet and Mail but next to internet the ie icon isn't there. But when you click on it brings up ie options and not ie. The only way i was able to acess ie was clicking on Windows update and then ie launched. When I go into device manager my video card wasn't recognized, but i inserted my own drivers. Got the 71.20's from guru3d but they didn't get installed. I uncheck videocard drives and old videocard drivers from the drop down list. I will let you know if there are more problems. untitled.bmp
