Graphics card problem

I have a GeForce 2 MX400 at the moment. When XP starts up it says it has found new hardware which is the GeForce 2. I put in the installation CD. I let it go through the process of installing, and then when it's finished it says: "There was a problem installing this hardware. Video Controller (VGA Compatible). An error occurred during the installation of this device: The data is invalid." What is wrong and why can't I install its software?

Sorry, I fixed it. Anyway, whenever I do download a good newer driver from nvidia, it always seems to clash with my com. My games crash, they won't get in, etc, etc. Why is this? I thought that the newer drivers were supposed to be better than the original ones? Or is it just something to do with my com?

Something to do with your COM. I know that Detonator 30.82 works perfectly with MX400's because I've tested it!
