You're refering to the Drivers that are part of the NF4 Chipset package - right ?

Don't install them (or the IDE drivers), they cause most people nothing but trouble.

They have some kind of Firewall function if they're the ones I'm thinking of - and they usually don't work.

this is a new machine, so re-ghosting.

thought nvidia was better than that :(
