What graphics card do you have?
What driver version did you have before?
Which version did you update to?
Were you having a particular issue that made you update in the first place?
Is it worth rolling back to an earlier driver again?

A CoH_Helper report can help us get your current information.

Previous one is 6.14.others from 2005. Reason I did it was because I get random freeze ups. And at the moment? yeah, I rolled back to the previous version.

[/ QUOTE ] Well for starters, you don't have a real video card to begin with, but depending on what type of "television" you are using, the graphics might not improve much even with a better card anyway. It might improve overall performance though. Depending on what size your screen is, that 640x480 resolution is a waste of real estate.

Freeze ups could be caused by a number of things. (Did the new driver fix that part of your issue by the way?) I meant for you to post the whole CoH_Helper Log, not just that section. It has other useful information that we might find needs attention.

Honestly, as long as the issues you are having are bearable, I wouldn't fuss with it too much until you are ready for upgrading. As you can see, you might end up sacrificing one problem for a different one if you go changing things.

Freeze ups are random, so can't tell if its fixed. its very slightly bearable as i can see the cursor when i move it. but man its annoying.

Edit. fixed mouse problem. updating driver was changing a couple other things. its fixed now. don't know if freeze problem is fixed, but so far so good.
