If you are reading this, it is probably because you have an Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 or FX 5 series video card in a Media Centre/Center (MCE) that is not properly driving your TV via the tv-out (svideo) connector. In Vista and Windows 7, the default driver automatically provided by Windows Update is the Vista driver version 96.85.

Nvidia Geforce Fx 5200 Windows 7 Video Card Driver Download
Many many many many thanks for this great hint even if I dont use the TV Out of my video card.I am installing a HTPC with my old unused hardware with windows 7. The only problem was the Display driver for my Geforce FX5600 AGP. The official Win7 Driver/Nvidia Forceware 96.85 is really weak in combination with the windows media center. After installing the driver you suggested, all the animations in WMC run like a charm! Really incredible because I was already searching for an new video card.
Hi WoodyGems. I use Nvidia FX5200 graphics card. My problem is that, when i install the driver you suggested i am able to get my native resolution in the 19INch dell lcd monitor, but Aero is not getting enabled. I tried almost everything. It throws an error message saying WDM drivers are not available in this Graphics card. Could you please confirm whether you can able to run Aero with FX5200 with the driver version you suggested and how did you do that. Thank You.

As a noob, I was unable to remove the incorrect modules with the command line which resulted in a fresh install with no Nvidia card attached, then shutdown, install the Nvidia card and use the GUI to add the nvidia-current drivers to get 1080p and everything works. (I'm sure there was a better/easier/faster way but this was all I could figure out by myself).
In Xubuntu 12.04 I use: Menu > Settings > Additional Drivers. This opens a GUI listing the drivers available for the video card. Select the recommended proprietary driver. You'll have to reboot the system after changing the video driver to activate it; I always just shut it down and do a cold-boot. 2ff7e9595c
