Am i going to need to uninstall the video card drivers (version 93.71) that i got from nvidia.com?

if these are the drivers you installed eVGA GeForce 7900GT
what will happen is your going to asked to uninstall them for the new drivers which will be replaced by updated version or they will overwrite write your drivers with an updated version

after the update if you continue to get a blue screen or your computer continues to freeze ill ask a moderator to to look more into your problem in the mean time you need to update your installments it makes it easier for the moderators

I cant install these drivers.
I used the alternate .inf file they said to use if that didn't work, but it still didn't work.
I also tried the method that they mentioned in the link you posted, but no luck there either.
So what now?

I did windows update and got the latest one.
Java automatically downloaded an update earlier today.
And chkdsk /f /r came up clean.
Although the first time I tried it I got a BSOD.

ok its 4 in the morning here. im going to bed

Here I am gonna google that error message for you. Will be back later with the results.

When those drivers you gave me wouldnt install I never reinstalled the previous ones. And when I went to bed I left the computer on just to see if it would BSOD. But it hasn't and is still on. I'm not an expert but does this mean that the problem is my video card drivers?

Are you able to change screen resolution settings, (if you wanted to)

Well right now without any drivers I'm at 1024x768 and the only resolution change I can make is to 800x600 which does work.

is there a way you could get the name of actual of video card should have some sort of
number on the card its self

My video card can be found at Newegg.com I have verified the model number actually on the card so don't worry.

would this include updating my mobo BIOS as well?

[you_silly_mortals]

Its taking so long because I had some trouble figuring out the current versions of the drivers I'm using right now. Most of them are up to date already.
