| Help! It started off when i put in a sound card. On start up i got this error(i would show you the link but apparently i cant), every single option i selected, my computer would just shutdown. So i took out the sound card and i got the same error but this time i selected "last known good configuration" and it worked. Then i tried to play cs:s and got a window saying my drivers are out of date. So i go to the ATI site and download the new drivers and restart my computer and i got the same stupid error on start up. I ask around on how to fix that error and people said to just reformat. I reformat and install all the new drivers. I start up CS:S and i got the same window saying that my drivers are out of date. I ignore the message and join a server, but its unplayable. I had 1-20fps on high and low settings. I tried a different game (BF2) and i got the same results as CS:S. Does any know whats wrong? Ive install different drivers like warcat 7.4, it did add a little fps but still didnt work. SystemSpecs- Windows Vista Ultimate Intel Pentium D CPU 2.80GHz, 2792Mhz, 2 Cores, 2 logical Processors 2GB DDR2 of RAM ATI x1950Pro 256mb DDR3

| i just found out that the "drivers out of date thing" that steam has, is just an error. But that still doesnt explain that im getting low fps. Ive tried my 6200TC and i got the same problem.

| Did you get the new driver completely uninstalled? Use driver cleaner. Make sure I understand. This happened when you installed the sound card or the new driver?

| Now you have everything back to the way it was? All updates and such. You never got the drivers out of date before installing the sound card? Are you using onboard sound now? Are you using the same sound drivers you were before installing the add on sound card?
