I just built a system with the ECS C51GM-M. It has a built in nVidia GeForce 6100 display adapter. I installed Vista Home Premium on the machine and it did not like the display adapter. It recognized it as a 6100 and installed it's driver for it, but the display was all garbled. Garbled meaning that chunks of the window would be redrawn over other spots, making it just about unreadable. I installed the latest one from the nvidia site for Vista with the same result. When I installed the driver for Windows XP off the ECS site the display was better in that I didn't get any garbled junk. However, I would frequently get the blue screen of death on the file n4_mini.sys which is I'm sure because I'm using the wrong driver.
So, a couple questions. Even though I don't have the GeForce 6100 as a seperate card it should still take teh same driver as if I did? So the driver off the nVidia website should work? Does this sound like bad hardware? The fact that ECS doesn't have an Vista driver on their website makes me wonder if this board is even supported by Vista. Please help!
