Re: Major comp/driver issues
Sounds like a combination of problems:
I have no idea why you would uninstall ethernet drivers to install new graphics drivers?? ....are you confusing nForce drivers with GeForce drivers? Maybe....
You talk about 97.92 video drivers... the newest GeForce drivers for your card are 169.21 according to nVidia.com.
Geek Squad is not known for great tech support but you may have gotten lucky.
I'm not sure about the pci device but I do wonder if the motherboard drivers are installed and up to date?
Reguarding crash issues: Have you checked the temperatures of your board, cpu, and graphics card ... is there good airflow in your case?
