Windows XP Manual Installation

Installation of the drivers for your video card can be fairly easy if the following steps

are followed carefully. There are a few things to keep in mind before proceeding with

the removal of the old drivers and installation of the new ones.

• What is your previous card you're upgrading from? Is it a separate video card

that is plugged into either an AGP or PCI slot on your motherboard?

• If you don't see one installed, the video may be supplied by an onboard or

integrated video controller. This simply means that the video chip is built unto

the motherboard itself.

• If you qualify for the above, it is very important to either check with the

motherboard manual or simply contact the manufacture's technical support.

Onboard video can be disabled in one of the three ways:

• In the motherboard BIOS, newer motherboards allow for

Disabling/Enabling the Onboard VGA controller. Now, depending on the

make and model of your motherboard, the option for the onboard controller

may be labeled differently. Again, please double check with the manufacturer.

• Disable the VGA device through the Device Manager in Windows.

• If you have an older motherboard of 4 years and older, the only way of

disabling the onboard VGA device is by setting certain jumpers on the

motherboard (i.e. affixing certain shunts on designated pins.)

Note: the driver used in this guide is version 52.16.

Step 1: Download the driver file without the AutoInstaller to either your Desktop or

any predetermined download folder. Once the download process is finished, double-

click the file.

Step 2: A window will appear prompting you to disable your anti-virus. If you have

an anti-virus scanner installed you must disable it at this point before clicking the

YES button.

Step 3: Please read the license agreement. Once you have read and agreed to the

license click on the I accept option followed by the NEXT button.

Step 4: This step determines where the video driver installation files will be

extracted. You can use the default folder "C:\NVIDIA\Win2KXP\52.16" or change the

location by click the CHANGE button.

Step 5: Once the extraction process has reached 100%, the program will prompt to

install the driver, in this case we are using the setup file only for the extraction

process. You can proceed by clicking the CANCEL button.

Step 6: The setup will prompt "Are you sure you want to quit setup?" continue by

clicking the YES button.

Step 7: Locate the "My Computer" icon and right click > select Properties.

Step 8: This will bring up your system properties of your Windows XP operating

system, displaying the Windows XP version and CPU information. At the top should

be seven tabs, selecting the tab marked Hardware.

Step 9: Under the Hardware tab, the Add Hardware Wizard, Device Manager

and Hardware Profiles sections will be displayed. Click the Device Manager

button.

Step 10: Locate the "Video Controller (VGA Compatible)", right click on its icon and

select Update Driver.

Step 11: This in turn will bring up the Windows XP Hardware Update Wizard.

Select the second option available which is Install from a list or specific location

(Advanced). Click Next > to proceed.

Step 12: At this point, the Hardware Update Wizard will allow you the option to

either search for the appropriate drivers or have you pick a specific driver yourself.

You know the location of the extracted display driver files from Step 4. Select the

option, Don't search. I will choose the driver to install. Then, click Next >.

Step 13: The Hardware type window will be listed. Choose Display adapters and

click Next >.

Step 14: Afterwards a list of models may be shown depending on whether or not a

previous driver has been installed before. Otherwise, the list will be blank. Select the

Have Disk... button at the lower right.

Step 15: A pop-up window will appear asking for the location of these drivers. You

can type in "C:\NVIDIA\Win2KXP\52.16" or if you have extracted the files to another

location direct dialog box by clicking Browse.

Step 16: This will complete the Hardware Update Wizard. Click on the Finish button.

Step 17: You will be prompted to reboot your system. Click on the YES button and

upon reboot your driver will be installed.
