Forceware Upgrading problems - 2005/12/28 07:41 Hi all,
I am having problems upgrading the forceware drivers.I have a Leadtek a6200td [A2revision 128mb agp] and i have succesfully unlocked the pipelines using rivatuner.I Have also flashed the bios with a Sparkle 6600 rom which i got on mvktech.

The problem:
I have been using forceware 78.01 comfortably for quite some time now.I tried upgrading to 81.95.On restarting i find my display locked at 4 bit color.

The maximum resolution i can go to is 800x600.so i revert back to 78.01 and everythings fine
I tried uninstalling previous drivers with "driver cleaner pro" and then installed 81.95.but i still get the same problem.
Please help me.

I have a P4 2.4a ghz [socket 478] with 1 gb ram on winxp sp2.ive attached the bios just in case. sparkle.6600.128.agp.with.temp
