GWX 1.03 sends me into reboot

[Brag]

1 I have removed all other games when installing GWX last December. then installed Nvidia 5700--GWX ran peachy after that. Installed GWX 1.02 no problems, game ran perfectly. Last Saturday installed GWX 1.03, it ran perfectly. Saved on the surface. Sunday, the thing crashed on start.

Havent done anything to ports or hardware since installing Nvidia.

Try updating your nVidia drivers BUT make sure all remnants of the old drivers are gone first, this is usually why this happens. I think there is a nVidia removal tool.

Edit - have a look here - http://www.3dchipset.com/utilities/n...oval/index.php

Thanks , Danlisa,
Having trouble loading that page. Grrr. At least,this is not a GWX problem.
Will see what I can do with Nvidia drivers.

Def not a GWX prob Had a similar experience with my daughters rig 3/4 months back.....Reinstalled XP Pro (repair mode) and faulty/ missing drivers were installed....prob solved

I removed drivers, reinstalled proper ones with help of Nvidia techie. We went through 2 game loads, now got crashes to desktop. Tried with flight combat simulator and that worked.

I removed SH 3 and reinstalled SH=3 from DVD--that didn't work

BIG Question:

I installed the Vanilla, will get the 1.4 patch.

Do I need to instal in the following order?:

GWX
then straight to 1.03?

I have deleted all UBI files. But my GWX career is still there

That's correct. All the patches are commulative and each patch contains all the previous changes. If GWX 1.03 is what you want just install GWX and then patch it up to 1.03
