View 9 Replies View RelatedI am planning on finally upgrading to Windows 7, but i want to make sure my graphics card works. It is a nvidia fx5500, and i heard that there were problems with it giving BSOD and such. Can i just use windows update stuff to download the drivers and then it works, or do i have to download the vista drivers and then install them in compatibility mode, or will it give me a BSOD?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm running 64-bit Windows 7, SP 1 and recently had problems with Windows updates not installing (going back to August).Windows Fixit didn't work, but an HP utility did, which then allowed updates to download and install. However, after the reboot to complete installation, I got the dreaded NTLDR Not Found message. Managed to sort that out (not exactly sure what did it: making sure the boot location was set to internal hard disc and/or using disc one of a three-disc HP Recovery set that I created after a previous NTLDR issue). The problem I have is that one update did not install:
nVidia - Display, Other hardware - NVIDIA GeForce 405
Download size: 188.7 MB
nVidia Display, Other hardware software update released in March, 2012.
I've tried to download the driver directly from Nvidia but that fails too, with the message that I don't have an Nvidia GPU!I even lost the Nvidia control panel. I checked the Nvidia components in the appropriate system folder and discovered that they were set for Windows XP. Changing them to WIndows 7 made no difference. I manually ran the Physx application (clutching at straws from a knowledge base of zero) and the control panel loads up but when I run it from the task bar, I get the no Nvidia GPU message. There definitely IS an Nvidia GeForce 405 present. It worked before. At one point, Device Manager showed it as present, but I can't repeat that situation: under Display Adapters it just shows Display.Under Sound, Video and Game Controllers, Device Manager shows 4 Nvidia HD Audio entries, located in Location 0,1,2 and 3 (Internal High Definition Audio Bus). Did they come from the Nvidia GPU set up? And why four of them? How do I get Windows to recognise the GPU and install the new driver? I'm not sure if it's related, but I also can't get Media Centre to find my XBox 360 as an extender. The error message indicates that it might be a Sunbelt Vipre Firewall issue. I've tried to set local port access as firewall exceptions as per the XBox web site suggestions, but I can't work out how to set the 'system' entries (there is no application labelled System to locate). My Packard Bell netbook located the XBox at the first attempt (also 64-bit Windows 7 SP 1, running McAfee-based BT NetProtect Plus). Sunbelt Support were, sadly, no great help, as all they did was direct me to the XBox web site after a very long web chat interaction. HP Support utility also repeatedly failed to install the Ralink WiFi driver update, but it succeeded the other day and then I had problems with not being able to connect the PC to the internet via the wired ethernet connection to my BT HomeHub 3 running Infinity (via the BT Infinity Modem). WiFi connection worked, but not wired. That issue disappeared after a couple of days (no idea why), but every time I start the PC I get a BT Help Browser redirect window attempt to load but it fails every time and I have to end the task manually. Under Netwrok Adapters, Device Manager shows:
802.11n Wireless LAN Card
Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter
Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter #2
Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller
WAN Miniport (IP) Sunbelt Software Firewall NDIS IM Filter Miniport
WAN Miniport (Network Monitor) Sunbelt Software Firewall NDIS IM Filter Miniport
However, under the two Sunbelt entries, Device Manager indicates that "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware because a previous instance of the device driver is still in memory. (Code 38) You need to restart your computer before the changes you made to this device will take effect." Closing the entry yields "Your hardware settings have changed. You must restart your computer for these changes to take effect. Do you want to restart your computer now?" You guessed it: restarting makes no difference and the same messages keep appearing under Device Manager.
I just installed Windows 7 x86 on my Gateway MT3423 laptop.I did not realize that the graphics driver was not compatible with Windows 7.Does anyone know of a way to get an alternate driver that works with this configuration?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI am using NVidia GeForce FX 5500 256 MB RAM on my home PC. I installed Windows 7 Ultimate RC and everything worked smoothly including Aero to the highest quality where drivers were from Windows Update. Now, I got licensed Windows 7 Professional. When I update the driver from Windows Update everything works just fine until I shut down the PC and turn it on again. When I do that after OS finishes loading, screen suddenly goes blank. After like 2 minutes, system gives a blue screen and restarts. This time Windows successfully makes it to desktop saying that Windows recovered from an unexpected shutdown. When the report is prepared it says something went wrong with the video card drivers. The same thing happens even if I install the latest drivers for Vista directly from nVIDIA website as there is no Windows 7 drivers for FX 5500.

I've just installed Windows 7, and the drivers on nvidia's homepage for vista x64 doesn't work, where can I get a driver that works?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with my nVidia drivers. When I first installed Windows 7, I installed the GeForce drivers (big mistake). Then I installed the automatic update of nvidia drivers that Windows 7 downloaded. This lead to problems. I have now unistalled all drivers. Windows then looked for it's own drivers, and said they were installed. However, Aero doesn't seem to be working (all taskbars are gray).
I can't download the drivers from the nVidia site, because for some reason they haven't put the Windows 7 drivers for mobile gfx cards online. I can't download the driver via Automatic Update because Windows seems to think I already installed it. Does anybody know how I can find these drivers?
The Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 doesn't work in Windows 7. Can you give me advice on buying a new inexpensive card. I asked a Nvidia tech and he said the video card was not designed to work with Windows 7. If anyone could advise me on the latter issue I would appreciate it.

These drivers are VERY BETA, use at your own risk!
However, I have noticed a slight increase in performance (Versus the 186.18 Drivers) in the Crysis Benchmark as well as the Counter-Strike: Source stress test.
I haven't tried 3DMark or any of that jazz yet.
DOCUMENTATION FROM THE GURU3D SITE:
There's a new NVIDIA GeForce driver out on the loose and it's in fact the first series 190 driver ever. This is Forceware 190.15 The driver is available for Windows Vista 32- and 64-bit and for Windows XP 32-bit flavor is available.
Very little is known about this driver but we need to that the original .inf file shows it was targeted at Quadro cards. We replaced the index with a modified .inf files (courtesy of laptopvideo2go) making the driver compatible with all current GeForce cards.
Interesting is that the Vista / Win 7 drivers also contact 3D Stereo drivers revision 190.15, look inside the archive to spot that yourself.
These drivers are to be considered very beta and thus treated as such. You install them at your own risk, don't complain to us or NVIDIA if they do not work out for you.

There's no second monitor in the system settings, only the standard vga-graphiccard and a pnp-monitor.

I'm currently having problems with my graphic card driver and the aero effects in windows 7. It wont allow me to install the driver or use the aero effects and that is a bummer for me. I really wanted to try it out.
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?
