Potato2k4 Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 Okay so I went to the nVidia website to download the latest driver for my GeForce FX 5200. I can get to the page fine, but when the "License For Customer Use of NVIDIA Software" dialog pops up it won't let me click the 'Accept' button. The 'Do not accept' button works fine though. Any idea as to what's going on?Thanks in advance, Potato. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LeprechauN Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 should work fine unless you have something disabling JS in your browser or some other 3rd party application stopping your browser from functioning normally...the latest forceware: http://download.nvidia.com/Windows/93.71/9...nglish_whql.exe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blim Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 Did this NVidia thing come with your computer? You could try downloading the driver at the computer manufacturer's website (? guessing!)Liz Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Worth a try.Barb Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Potato2k4 Posted November 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 Wow, you guys are fast =P.@LeprechauN - I appreciate the effort but I'm on ME =P@blim - It is my graphics card.@Bar5 - Thats what I thought too at first, but the thing is you HAVE to scroll all the way down to even get to the button, and the button that is right next to it works just fine. I have an idea though, its kind of sneaky but I don't see why it wouldn't work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bearskin Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 (edited) worked fine for me...sorry, no help here tater.I'm also on winme. Edited November 25, 2006 by bearskin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Potato2k4 Posted November 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 (edited) *Sigh* That's okay I have a plan. I will check on it right now and edit with results.EDIT: Well my plan seems to be working. Heres what I did for future reference:1. Make your way to the driver page that you need (This should work for them all.) And highlight the download link. *You'll notice that the direct link is in the Javascript at the bottom of the screen.*2. Right click and use the 'Copy Link Location' in the menu.3. Paste the link into your address bar and erase the javascript that surrounds it. This should take you directly to the download, bypassing the License Agreement.

Honda_Boy Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 wow I guess nVidia has givin up on Windows 9X. The current driver for it is only 81.98. The current XP driver for anything other than an 8800 is 93.71. I'm sure you'd hate to do this but did you ever try it in IE? It might have worked. I hate IE but FF can't do it for some reason, I try IE just for the heck of it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
