Hi John,
In Vista, there are actually 2 administrator accounts. One of these is the
account that you set up when you install Vista, the other is a built-in
account which is disabled by default. I refer you to my post 'Activating the
built-in main Administrator Account' also in this newsgroup (dated
10/12/2007). The driver you mention is actually part of the Nvdidia graphics
driver. These are in constant development, so a newer driver might be able to
fix your problem. I currently use the latest WHQL driver, version 169.25, and
have had no problems with it whatsoever. Links to my post and the relevant
Nvidia websites are given below.
