Have you tried uninstalling the drivers in Device Manager? (Right-click on My Computer and select "Manage ...")

Sory for my inocence here but can u be more specific so go to device manager ... ?

Do u mean device manager hardware and then remove the card ?

thx laz

Right. When you "remove" in Device Manager, it removes the driver. As I recall, it then asks you to reboot, and when the system starts up again, it'll find "new" hardware, giving you a chance to start again.
