After Nvidia Driver Install, Get 'windows Not Genuine'
i was trying to get drivers for my printer. After restart, screen went black. I restarted in safe mode with netwking to find out what to do. So I eventually found out my graphics card had no driver; it had a generic vga adapter. So I search for my graphics card to find it is an Nvidia GeForce fx 5200 and I get the drivers for it.
I restart in normal mode: no success. restart in safe' with net' . starts and am notified that drivers have installed. Now on next restart in normal mode, application error 0xc150002...press ok. Then i get a message in the bottom right hand corner that says 'windows is not genuine build 7600'.
I have seen how to change it with/without cmd, but either requires normal mode.
So how do I re enter my product key?

Can't Upgrade Vista To Windows 7 Bc NVidia Drivers
I'm having this really weird problem. I am currently running a GeForce 9500 GT on vista and have tried upgrading to Windows 7 release candidate 1 from Vista. The problem is, Windows 7 doesn't like the Nvidia drivers I have on my system. So I uninstalled them. Completely. Restarted. Tried the upgrade again, and boom! Still can't upgrade because Nvidia drivers / nview desktop manager (yes, that is what it says). I have literally restarted my computer 20 times, uninstalling, reinstalling and whateverinstalling. I have no idea what to do in order to upgrade to windows 7. The drivers or my actual hardware is not letting me upgrade.

Can't Install Drivers For NVidia GeForce 8500 GT
I have Windows 7 32bit installed on an ASUS P5RD1-VM mobo with an nVidia Geforce 8500 GT graphics card. I have tried numerous times to install the Windows 7 (32bit) Driver from manufacture site, but when it tries to install the drivers, I get an error message saying "No drivers were found that work with your device. Setup will now close." I don't get this! I'm on that graphics card right now, in Windows 7, and typing this thread... Also, in Device Manager, there is no "Display Adapter" listed.... I can't seem to find any evidence of a generic display driver either.... I've already solved the problem of my sound not working (SoundMAX Integrated Digital HD Audio) and this is the last thing I need to get Windows 7 working for a REAL test run! How can I get these drivers installed?

Can't Install Drivers For Devices Nvidia 8400M GT Graphics
A couple days ago, I installed Windows 7 (through MSDNAA). I have a problem with some devices. The situation can be seen here: I tried updating driver software through windows and it said it was unable to find drivers I have no idea what the "Unknown Device" may be. The "Multimedia Video controller" I'm guessing is my Nvidia graphics card? The Mass Storage Device I think is my Magicgate memory card slot, but I'm not sure. I have an Nvidia 8400M GT graphics card and judging by what I've seen on the resolution window (and device manager), I'm currently running on my standard VGA graphics device, and not my Nvidia. I manually searched for the drivers for my graphics card off the Nvidia site, but every time I try to install it, I get this messege ]I've already tried reformatting and reinstalling windows 7, now I'm running out of ideas. Can anybody please help? I'm using a Sony Vaio TP3 computer. It's a "desktop" with laptop components and was initially running on Vista.

Win7 Will Not Shut Down And Can't Upgrade NVIDIA Driver
on a recently purchased HP Pavillion Dv7, quad core, laptop I can't get it to shut down and it will not go into standby either when using the Start > Shutdown the system appears to hang with the Shutting Down ... message on the screen. It eventually blue screens with a DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE errorThe .dmp files started on 12/20. There is a restore point on 12/20 that I can't seem to get to restore.I tried to upgrade the NVIDIA driver, the driver installation hung and would not complete.Also tried applying the hot fix from KB 977307. That took a very long time to install, maybe 30 minutes but did eventually complete.I will begin the process of disabling drivers and such next, but was hoping there might be another clue that I am missing. The restore point indicates that some HP software was updated, so, that would seem to be the first thing to disable / reinstall.Thank you,-jdPS: Other than this it's been a great machine and OS. Good job. Best version one of Windows yet.

Explorer: Changing Default Path From 'Libary' To 'Computer'
I even tried replacing the quick launch icon with the Windows Explorer Desktop icon. It still thinks I need to use the libary. When I use programs like Mp3tag when I return to the menu after editing an album, I have to change the path back to the drive where I am working. Is there a way to change the default folder view from 'Library' to 'Computer' ?

Windows Upgrade Advisor Won't Install
Trying to install Win 7 Upgrade Advisor on a two-year old Vista machine (DELL XPS 420). Clicking the setup icon to install gets me nothing. No installation screens, no warnings, no errors, nothing. I tried installing on an older XP laptop and the software installs there just fine. I've checked the other related topics and they seem to be related to problems installing on XP, not Vista. Any ideas what I'm missing? I've never encountered an installation that fails before it even starts.

How Do I Install Windows If I Can't Get Into The Bios To Set The Boot Order ?
I'm looking for some kind of boot manager program that I can use that'll install itself on the hard drive so that when I boot up it'll allow me to select from cd-rom, usb or other boot options. But I can't... I've tried for 6 hours to install windows 7 (I'm an MSDN member) on this laptop but I can't cause it doesnt seem to boot from the CD or USB, however, Hirens BOOT CD 10.0 boots from cd.A while back, I was able to install a boot manager of some type that when I booted up it allowed me to select where I wanted to boot off of (allowing me to select cd to boot off cause I couldn't change the boot order in the bios)... this laptop I have (Sony VAIO VGN-NR260E) I don't know the password for the BIOS 'cause I bought it 3rd party and I don't know his password and neither does he. So what can I do? Or does someone who has a Sony VAIO VGN-NR260E know how to reset the bios/cmos?

Stuck At ' Completing Upgrades ' Of Install
I'm am trying to install Win 7 from a current system that has Vista, and it has been stuck at "Completing Upgrades" for 12+ hours, do I just have to wait for the computer to do its thing, or is there something wrong with my install? Am I basically stuck until it finishes? What is going on at this time of install? What would happen if I was to shut off my computer?

SB Audigy2 XS - Can't Install Driver
Brand new install of Win 7 Home Premium 64bit. Windows installed a driver automatically for my soundcard, but I had no sound... great. So I downloaded a newer driver from Creative's site (2.18.0011) but it refuses to install, saying it can't find a supported product! My Audigy2 works perfectly under XP so it's not a hardware issue.

Can't Install BC-5500S Driver
I've just bought a notebook (FSC Amilo 3540) with a Sony Optiarc BC-5500S DVD/Blu-ray drive. Then I changed the operating system into Windows 7. Everything seems to work fine, except the fact that I couldn't install the driver for BC-5500S. From the vendor's website, it says that it supports Windows 7 (and also according to Sony's website).

ATI Driver Won't Install
I have a Toshiba Satellite Laptop and I installed Windows 7 Build 7100 on it. However, Open GL games do not work, and I have the ATI 8.56 graphics driver installed and I am trying to upgrade it to the latest 8.61. However, after I run the installer, my screen does not blink and once installation is complete, I do not see a change in the driver version - and catalyst is not installed as well. However, when i am trying to re-install it says the drivers are already installed. Any ideas as to whats going wrong? Its a 32-bit OS. I cannot run any OpenGL games, they fail saying it could not load OpenGL.

Can't Install Network Card Driver
I tried to install network card driver, but I can't because of: 1) device manager doesn't see any networking devices (I looked even for devices without driver) 2) control panel -> add a device hungs up in state 'searching for devices... Make sure your device is discoverable.', so I cannot install it this way either. This is a computer where I used linux and windows xp before without a problem, so I think hardware is not the issue.

Kyocera FS-9530DN Printer, Can't Install Driver
We have a Kyocera FS-9530DN printer on our school network for which Windows cannot find a compatible driver. I know that the windows vista drivers will work on Windows 7 because a student who upgraded from Vista to Windows 7 is able to use the printers. Unfortunately, I am unable to install the printers - Kyocera provides sets of its printer drivers through an .exe installation bundle that automatically detects the OS and then kills the application because it's not a supported OS.

Can't Install Matrox Driver After Win 7 Upgrade
I have a Matrox M9120 PCIe x16 graphics card. It was running fine in Vista x64 with the 1.0.3.35 driver. I ran the Windows 7 x64 upgrade, and everything seemed to be OK until I discovered that I couldn't open Windows Media Center or view DVDs or other videos. I tried to upgrade to the latest Matrox driver, which supports Windows 7, but the old driver wouldn't uninstall. I contacted Matrox tech support and was advised that I should have uninstalled the old Matrox driver BEFORE upgrading to Windows 7. They said that Windows 7 has locked in the old driver but cannot recognize it so that it can be uninstalled because it is not a Windows 7 compatible driver. They added that the ONLY solution is to do a clean install of Windows 7. This is outrageous. No such information appears on the Matrox website, and Matrox did not notify me of the terrible consequences of upgrading to Windows 7 without uninstalling the Matrox driver even though I registered the M9120 with them last January and provided my email address. Matrox knows that every customer faces a potential disaster when upgrading to Windows 7 but covers up the mess rather than notifying registered owners of the simple step to take prior to upgrading. I'm not going to do a clean install but will use the Matrox card without the ability to play videos for the time being in the hope that some smart techie will figure out how to uninstall the old Matrox driver from Windows 7. If that doesn't happen, I'll buy some other fanless video card and replace the partially functional Matrox card.

Can't Install Because Critical System Driver Is Missing Or Corrupt
I've just acquired Windows 7 Professional and wanted to install it now, formatting my HDD during setup (I'm currently running XP Professional). However, when I boot from the DVD, I get the Starting Windows screen and then the Boot Manager screen opens with the error message: "Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. A critical system driver is missing or corrupt. File: Windowssystem32DRIVERSadp94xx.sys" Tried to google it, but all I found was that it's an Adaptec driver for the Windows Kernel and that's is a Vista related problem as well. same problem when starting Windows 7 (though he had already installed it), but fixed it by disabling driver signature enforcment. This, though, didn't work for me. And I sure didn't have any hardware or software changes, especially since I didn't even install it yet. Because I couldn't. btw, when I try to install it from XP, it seems to work fine. Stopped the progress though, don't want to have 2 OS. Any ideas? More information needed?

Win7 [7100] Install Can't Find Required CD/DVD Driver
I'm trying to install Win7 [7100] on my secondary harddrive, but when I go to start the install process it opens a prompt that says it "cannot find a required CD/DVD driver." When I try to choose the folder that the current DVD drive's driver is stored in, it says it "cannot find a device driver" in it. The DVD-ROM works just fine [as evidenced by the fact that it both works in Vista and lets me boot from the DVD in it], so I'm left trying to figure out what the issue is and how to solve it.

Matrox Win 7(x64) Display Driver Won't Install
I'm having problems installing my Matrox driver on windows 7(x64) version. I've been using the 32bit version of windows 7, and i managed to get the matrox driver installed no problem. (i used the windows compatibility mode) I've tried the same method again (Windows compatibility mode) and downloaded the Vista(x64) version of the driver. It suggests the right diver to install but then says i have an incompatible version of windows. I have read up on the problem, and i have seen suggestions to check that the device ID is listed in the display drivers .inf file. I've checked that and my device ID does exsist in the driver .inf file. So now i'm stumped, is there another way to install my driver? Does anyone have any suggestions as to why my driver won't install.
