    The drivers could have gotten slightly corrupted so it fails to load the Control Panel. A fix for this would to be uninstall the drivers that are installed right now, then go to www.nvidia.com and download the newest drivers and see if that cures your problem.

    thank you Sqeaner. my present nvdia version for the 6800xt card is 84.2.1
    ive looked at the nvidia site and i can't quite understand what number of the new driver i should be upgrading to. perhaps someone could advise me.

    i think i now have the correct driver version to be installed nvidia 91.47. i will go ahead unless any of of you out there have had any adverse problems regarding this update. thank you Sqeaner.
