3D Initialization Failure?

I've played in the past three BWEs without any issues. I ran the client yesterday to get the lastest updates with no issues. I get up this morning, run the client and I get an error message saying:
"3D Initialization Failure". It goes on to tell me to get the latest drivers and DirectX. I have a GeForce TI4200 so I goto Nvidia and download the latest drivers, install, restart, same problem. I go get DirectX 9.0c and install it, restart, same problem.

Any suggestions?

TIA

the latest drivers are not the best for your card. i suggest trying older drivers. some recommend trying the 61.77s but guru3d.com recommends the 56.72s.

Thanks for the reply, I'll give that a shot. Its odd that I have later drivers than those and never had an issue with GW.

Edit: I just went to guru3d.com. Which section gives the recommended drivers for certain cards? thanks
