    I have had this problem before also while updating from stock drivers...but somehow managed to update to 163.69 and i used it for a couple of weeks...yesterday i felt like updating to 163.75 ...

    Now after updating to 163.75 when computer restarts the screen goes Blank when Vista is loading


    Unfortunately my system restore was off this time(norton had switched it off due to some virus)

    So I had to return to stock driver from safe mode.

    So now I am stuck with 98.15 ...i can't even update to previous driver i.e163.69 due to same Blank Screen problem ...


    Can someone give me some advice....


    I have been trying to update driver for the past two days since stock driver gives lot of problems.


    P.S:

    >I have read article on updating drivers on vista& XP,
    >I tried using Driver Cleaner SW also
    >I uninstall previous driver and reboot whenever appropriate.
    > I have used all methods including Have Disk.
    >I have succeeded only once in updating to 163.69 and now when i reinstall 163.69 that also gives same Blank Screen problem.
