Default Battle Field 2

I got a new video card, and it has a Nvidia 6600 gt chipset, everytime i start up Battlefield a message comes up that says to update my drivers to get good video quality, then it tells me to click a button on the splash screen, but there is none. when i play there are huge box shadows around everything that moves. I allready tried downloading new drivers on Nvidia.com

uninstall, re-install, and install the 1.41 patch before you try to run it. If you had an ATI card before, you need to make sure to uninstall the old drivers and clean your registry, then uninstall the NVIDIA drivers, clean the registry, then reinstall the NVIDIA drivers.

Use the Issues button. Scan for Issues. Have it Fix Selected Issues. When the dialog box pops up, choose Fix All Selected Issues.

Yeah it worked, at first I wasn't sure it would work, cause things normally don't work for me, and it didn't at first, then i realized i didn't clean the registry after uninstalling the drivers,and reinstalling the new drivers for the video card. so i did it and it worked. Thanks alot Guys
