While in Safe Mode go into the Control Panel and Remove the drivers for your video card. You should then reboot and be able to boot into Windows. Now just reinstall the drivers.

thanks for the reply minendo, tried that. same results. i have it working now but had to slow the hardware accelerator down to basic. (in display properties) seems to be the only way it will work. any more ideas as to how to use this card to full advantage are appreciated. thanx, jer
