Hi,
I bought an OEM Creative GF2 GTS 64 MB off the web. It runs fine, now using Nvidia ref drvs 6.31. I can't install the Creative Fastrax drvs or AGP Wizard, "no Creative card found"? Sandra and PCI list show the card as "Ensoniq(Creative). The card is silkscreened "Creative Technology" and has a "GBxxxx" number on it. Why can't I use the Creative drivers? Any one have a BIOS file for the Annialator2 GTS 64 MB? I assume the BIOS string is why the Creative drivers won't install?
Also, if you have a Creative card: Is there a BIOS string when you boot up?
HELP Please,
Mike G
 
You need to make sure your remove the Nvidia drivers completely from your PC before you install the Creative drivers,if you go back to Nvidia drivers afterwards you need to remove the Creative drivers again.
 
Thanx, I thought you could install the Creative stuff over the Nvidia drivers. I was in vga, I should have run setup(Creative drivers are in an *.exe file) from there. I'll try it.
 
Yes, I have a BIOS string for my Creative GeForce 2 GTS at boot up before motherboard POST.
 
Thanx everyone, I found and flashed a Creative Annihilator BIOS, the card shows Creative on boot-up now and I can install the Creative drivers and utilities.
