problem with XP Plus! screensavers

[Guest]

I just installed an NVidia 5700 LE AGP graphics card on my WIN XP Home SP2
computer, and now when I attempt to set my screensavers, the colors are not
correct. Also, when I preview certain XP Plus! screensavers, my system
automatically shuts down. Can someone help me fix this problem??

You have a large selection of Nvidia Drivers to choose from. Go here
and get one.

Ok. I downloaded driver 66.93 for my card, however I am still having the same
problems with screensavers. I.E.: The colors of the fish in the Plus Aquarium
screensaver are a white/clear color but the background is normal. I
attempted to adjust the settings of the s.s., but it didn't work. Also, if I
click "Preview" for some Plus screensavers, my system crashes/reboots. I
have checked the settings of my new card, but nothing seems out of whack. I
am at a loss for what to do next. Can you help?

Your older system may just be giving marginal support to your 5700.
Here is something I found about the 5200. Take a look
