Try downloading (from NVIDA, not Microsoft's driver updates) the latest

drivers for your video card.

Are you using Microsoft's driver or the manufacturer's? Typically using the

drivers form Microsfot give you the most basic ability, for enhanced/advanced

features you should load the driver(s) and utilities supllied by the card

manufacturer or download form their web site.

Gforce4 MX 440 is not supported in XP, meaning there is "no driver" in XP,

you will have to go to nvidia.com for drivers.
