1 account not working after new vid card

Cowking · 03-31-2009, 08:11 PM

Hey y'all i recently installed an 8500 GT on my new computer with an integrated chip. So i thought well... what harm could i do?

well 1 account(main) doesn't work anymore for some odd reason, the other account works PERFECTLY. I was wondering if this was an incompatibility with vista, or just some random cluster****

P.S. all drivers and updates for video card and vista have been installed

MOBO Model:a6655f

What does the Device Manager tell you on SNAFU account? Any red/yellow flags?

Are both accounts regular Vista admin user accounts - or is either the Vista hidden admin account?

Don't know why this would make a difference, but I've seen stranger things happen.

Regards. . .
