Standard VGA Adapter
I just installed Windows 7 RC1 32-bit OS onto my laptop. Without thinking i needed any drivers, i went to play World of Warcraft. It told me that it could not locate a display device and wouldn't work. I figured i needed to install my grpahics card drivers for my Nvidia 9 series card. When i went to install the drivers, an error message appeared saying that it could not locate drivers compatible with my device.
I went to dxdiag and under display it shows that i have a standard vga adapter and won't recognize my actual graphics card. I'm not sure if i'm missing drivers, i haven't installed anything else except for this attempt at installing the nvidia driver.

Standard VGA Graphics Adapter
I put Windows 7 on my friends computer since he wanted me to, so I installed it. But there was one problem. His resolution is stuck at 640x480. It said he is running from a Standard VGA Graphics Adapter. His computer is fairly old, but all of the hardware is pretty good except for the video card. I brought him my old 7700 GTS for him to use for the time being, but I cannot install the drivers for it, and the computer still says he is running Standard VGA Graphics Adapter.

Cannot Get Rid Of Standard VGA Graphics Adapter
I just installed Windows 7 Professional 64x. Previously, I had 32-bit Vista Ultimate. I have a Dell Precision M90, with 4 gigs of ram, a 2.00 GHz core duo processor, and a Nvidia Quadro FX 2500M video card. In the device manager, my display adapter shows as Standard VGA Graphics Adapter. I'm decent with computers, so I've upgraded video card drivers before. However, for some reason it is not allowing me to upgrade this driver. I have tried with both a 2500M driver as well as a 7900GTX driver (which worked for me in Vista). I have also tried uninstalling the driver first, but it won't let me install another one before restarting and when I restart it just reinstalls the Standard VGA Graphics adapter.

Video DRIVER - Standard VGA Graphics Adapter

Generic Non-PnP Monitor On Standard VGA Graphic Adapter
OK as Ive been looking around the site Ive noticed that there are many issues like this one, and Im sure there are plenty of people out there that have this problem. My "Windows Experience Index" is at a 1.0 only because my Graphics, and Gaming Graphics rating are at 1.0. Everything else is at 5.9 which I can live with. When I look at my adavanced settings for my monitor it Shows my Nvidia GPU but only running with 14 MB total avail mem. And I know that NOT right. Unfortunatly when I went to Nvidia's site and ran the auto detect it said that I didnt even have their product and that I had the Standard VGA Graphics Adapter. I can't seem to find the right drivers for this to fix it all, and I would love to be able to "Experience" Windows 7 at its fullest. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Hopefully the attached photos will give you an idea as to what Im working with. Also When i toubleshoot Aero Ive received this message: "The current video card may support Aero with a driver that is compliant with the Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM). Contact the manufacturer of your computer or video card for a WDDM-compatible driver." And when I try to change my screensaver to a 3D one it states that I either need a newer graphics card or one that is compatible with Direct3D.

1280x1024 32 Bit With Standard VGA Driver
Is there any way to force the Standard VGA Driver to display in 1280x1024 32bit? If I look at the modes available, then I find 1280x1024, but only in 16bit. I have an old Nvidia GeForce2 MX/400, and after installing the XP drivers I was able to run at 1280x1024 in 32bit, but I was getting some crashes in nv4_mini.sys when trying to install DVDFab. "The Internet" tells me that this is due to the XP drivers, so I uninstalled them again and rolled back to the Standard VGA Driver and was able to install the software. But now I am limited to 16bit again. So, is there any way to force this?

Updated Resolutions For Standard VGA Driver
It's been what... 10+ years of the same "Standard VGA Driver" which used to serve a more useful role when screens were smaller, but these days in the age of laptops, the resolutions it supports are just not working. We use several medium age laptops (3-5 years), still 64 bit, still multi-core, and certainly not beyond their prime, unfortunately NVIDIA doesn't produce windows 7 drivers for the vid cards in our machines (GForce 440 Go). The only driver that really works is the Standard VGA Driver, but it only supports standard resolutions from 10 years ago, the largest being 1024x768. This means we just can't use Windows 7 on any of these machines, which we were hoping to do, simply because the SVD doesn't offer 1280x800. Couple questions, has anyone produced a customized version of the Standard VGA driver? Or an Standard WXGA Driver? Or is it possible to add resolutions ourselves to the standard driver that would solve this seemingly simple problem? Last, why hasn't Microsoft updated the supported list of resolutions to cover at least the basics for laptops or even the base screen resolutions of any modern LCD screen? Again, love Windows 7, just wish we could use it on all our machines!

Standard VGA Driver Doesn't Support DVD Playback
My old ATI RADEON Mobility 7500 graphics card is not supported in/under Windows7, so I use the rather fine MS-provided Standard VGA driver. Unfortunately this approach doesn't support DVD playback in Windows Media Player: Each time I insert a DVD and WMP starts playing I get an error message that analog copyright protection is nott supported by the driver. Now: Can't the Standard VGA driver be corrected/extended thus that it would allow/support DVD playback? It's entirely up to MS (e.g. to lock the VGA output during DVD playback) from my point of view ..

HP Quickplay And VGA Error
Blu-Ray is always a fun problem in 7 because of what I have determided to be a VGA error, I used to get this when my Nviaida drivers were set to dual screens but when I setup the screen off and screen on profiles in Vista it was fixed. With 7 I now get that error all the time but try as I must I can't get it to go away now, I am even running Quick Play (Latest version) in Vista mode which helped the speed of loading but not the VGA error. I would really like to play one of my movies soon because every time I try to configure the dual screen setup in 7's rez screen it seems to revert to having both avalable to the Quick Play program so it doesn't let me watch the movie; It thinks I am going to doop the movie to another source. So I am really a victom of anti-piracy.

What Is Broken In The Standard Firewire Driver ?
I was just wondering why Microsoft do not use the "legacy" driver as Standard? as there seems to be problems with whatever driver that is installed as standard during windows 7 installation. This isn't the first time they have produced iffy IEE1394 drivers or broken the drivers in a fashion that the firewire only ran at a quarter of its speed. I had problems with a firewire driven Software Defined Radio, The Flex5000, which will not work at all with the Standard drivers but is 100% with the legacy one.

Microsoft, Your "standard" Windows hot keys drive me crazy. *YOU* think they are convenient, *I* think they are annoying. Please, give me a choice; please, give me a way to disable them. I am talking about all these WndLogo+1, WndLogo+2, WndLogo+M, Shift+WndLogo+M, etc HINT: Using NoWinKeys is not an option. I do not want to disable ALL of them.

Problems When Using D-sub(VGA) Only LCD Monitors
A lot of people are experiencing problems when using LCD monitors connected through D-sub(VGA). I for example cannot use native resolution 1680x1050 after installing Windows 7 on computer with ATI X700. (It worked just fine on Windows 7 on old Intel 945 chipset motherboard with integrated video) When I bring my kid's monitor which is basically the same model but with DVI input Windows 7 automatically(!) sets resolution to 1680x1050. After I switch back to my monitor with D-sub only input 1680x1050 isn't even listed in "list all modes" ("hide modes that this monitor cannot display" unchecked). This is really weird. (DVI-to-D-sub connector doesn't help) The question is: Could this be solved by editing monitor.inf or something like that?

Run A Touchscreen Alongside A Standard Monitor
Haven't been able to get a good answer to this question. I plan on running my standard dual monitor setup + a small touchscreen for a total of 3. The touchscreen will be used as a lunchpad of sorts, holding icons for my most used programs files, touch, launch, back to old school monitors. It occurred to me that since the visible pointer would be on another screen, Windows might have to pull the pointer to the touchscreen to click, or might not know to pull it at all. I foresee problems trying to run a touchscreen alongside a standard monitor. Anyone have experiance with this? EDIT: Let me ask this a different way, question is a bit foggy... When running a touch screen next to a regular LCD, can I "click" an icon (via touch) without affecting the pointer on my other screen?

Understanding Output From Standard User Analyzer
I have several legacy applications that I'm verifying under Windows 7 with UAC enabled (at the default setting). All applications run 'perfectly well as a standard user' according to the Standard User Analyzer Wizard. (ACT 5.5, by the way.) Almost all the applications start without causing a UAC prompt at all. However, one app causes UAC to ask if the user wants to 'allow the program to make changes to this computer' - when acknowledged, the app runs fine. I'm assuming this means that Windows 7 regards the application as 'requiring elevation'. (Note: launching the same app via ShellExecute in another app results in a 'program attempted to launch a process that requires elevation' report in Standard User Analyzer, which I'm assuming backs up my theory.) So - I'm trying to work out why Windows 7 regards this one application as requiring elevation, but none of the others. I'm using the Standard User Analyzer (SUA) to get detailed information about the Warnings and Errors it reports. However, I'm having difficulty finding exactly what an Error or Warning *means* when it's reported by SUA. Can anyone shed any light? Does an Error in SUA indicate a condition that Windows 7 will regard as meaning, "this app requires elevation", for example? Edit: When launched as a Standard User, the app does not cause a UAC prompt. When launched as a user in the Local Admins groups, the app causes a UAC prompt. So I need to work out what causes Windows to mark the app as requiring 'approval to run' when launched as an administrator...

Standard DVD Playback Regular Stutter
I am seeing a problem with the Win7 beta and Standard DVD playback. I have only installed Beta, and installed the necessary drivers. No MCE setup other than the minimum (i.e. no tuners or anything in use) If I play back a standard DVD in MCE it will slow down and stutter (similar to what you see when layers changes sometimes) every so often. It seems to be about every 15-20 minutes this will happen for a little bit. I'm not sure about the timing, but it seems relatively regular. I was thinking maybe the CD drive is spinning down and then having to spin back up every now and then? But i can't find any power options related to the CD drive... Any ideas?

Intel 852/855GME On Vga Driver
For the life of me I can not understand why a card that is capable of fairly high performance only installs at 800x600. While working with the WDK I found that the card does not directly AERO but the vga driver should recognize more of it's capabilities. Could someone a little more schooled in the Voodo Magic of video drivers please include the full resolution range of the 852/855GME in the VGA Driver in Windows 7.

StarTech USB 2.0 VGA Driver Problem
I have a StarTech USB2VGA2 Adapter, which enables me to add an extra monitor to my Laptop dock via USB when working in the office. Unfortunately the hardware/driver gives me an issue. If I install the driver, then plug in the USB hardware all seems fine, but after the mandatory reboot the laptop will bluescreen in Win32k.sys after logon. As the driver is stated as a vista driver and I know it worked fine with Vista on the same hardware I have tried installing it in Vista compatibility mode. I have also tried using Vista Compatibility mode and running the install as an administrator. The vendor seems to be unconcerned and said they were waiting on a driver from the chipset manufacturer and had no ETA. Any suggestions as to how to get this working would be appreciated, or alternatively how I could get the extra monitor up and running cheaply on my Lenovo T400 Dock without using the StarTech USB device.
