I did try to reinstall my graphic card driver, i have checked Windows Vista Updates. But windows vista also know about this problem and its says that this problem was caused by Nvida Corporation, but all it says is to reinstall graphic card driver after that i tried to reinstall driver nothing has changed it still do those mall colorful dots.

It does indeed seem to be a Nvideo driver problem = I would guess a ‘race condition’ showing up because of the faster processor … no doubt they will eventually fix it and issue an update .. .
You could check out the forums to see if others have run into the same problem ..
… or try running the processor slower to see if it bursts into life ..
Have a look for a flash update for your motherboard. It might be compatible but it may not have the latest version for the processor.
You’ve re-installed the graphics card which is good but try re-installing DirectX just to be on the safe side.
Besides that, get yourself a genuine copy of Windows XP and enjoy trouble free computering for years to come because Vista is a big steaming pile of poo!
Hmm, I wonder if Windows Update is using an older driver, what setting have you got the game on and what do other games run like?
No offence but it could be that you’ve set the graphics too high on Crysis, the 9600 is a good card, but it’s not able to run the game on max.
Try setting the graphics a bit lower and disable AA if you have it enabled.
Also, most recent driver version for your card is here -http://www.nvidia.com/object/winvista_x8…
Try visiting the nvidia website and look for upgrades for the driver
