How to disable auto driver update on startup in VISTA

I have Acer 1.6 GHz 512 mb 400 fsb ram with Intel 82852/82855 GM/ GM
Chipset having Intel 82852/82855 GM/GME Graphic Controller drive
version which came along the laptop driver CD is 6.14.10.3691 (Inte
Extreme Graphics), resolution 1024 x 768, 32 bit

Problem is when I updated this driver with new 6.14.10.*4655* (not sur
about this last no. but it is the latest which comes with Intel Extrem
Graphics2), my screen streches, I cannot see the status bar, like on
can do with any monitor by streching its horizontal to full

Yesterday I installed Vista, by default it has this updated/lates
driver for Intel 82852/82855 GM/GME Graphic controller, and gives me th
same problem (SCREEN STRECHING). I tried updating the driver in Vista t
the old one which works 6.14.10.3691, after reboot everything work
fine but the problem is as soon as Vista loaded it automatically change
this driver to its default latest and asks for reboot and again the sam
problem of screen streched horizontally

Please help me, I dont know what to do, if it is possible t
permanently apply the old driver in vista. But the question remains wh
its streching when everything is the same except the updated version o
the driver

Can I stop auto driver update on startup, or can I replace the ol
driver with the new one permanently

Please need expert's advise, I request all the experts to help me out

Thank

Personally, when you have the old driver present and working, go into the
driver file, create a new folder and move the problem driver into it.

This problem with new version of graphic controller driver is both in X
and VISTA. In XP one can change to older version if the new doesnt wor
but in Vista when I update the driver to the old version (WHich work
fine) and reboots (Everything becomes normal) but as soon as the vist
loads, it automatically loads its new or default drivers. How can I sto
this process of vista so that old driver can stay their permanently o
if I can stop vista not to load any of its driver to replace the old on
on startu
