Hello! i just setuped Windows 7 Beta on my PC, i realised that it dont support my Video Card "geforce4 mx 440"?

And my Soundmax Sound Card, Windows 7 support the same cards as vista, so if anyone can hook me up with vista drivers or windows 7 drivers. it would be great. My Motherboard is Asus P5PE-VM. Memory : 768MB

32Bit. Thanks|||Try MS update.



All updates, not just critical.



Then look to the side at the optional hardware/software sections.|||Go to the nvidia website and get the video driver from them

Where can I get the best Windows 7 (32 bits) Drivers for my ATI Radeon 9250 AGP Video Card?

If somebody also knows how to get the aero feature using this video car, that would be great.|||There are no Windows 7 drivers for this device, which is probably why Aero is disabled. The video card is simply too old to justify supporting. If you'd like to see for yourself check out the link below.



Hope this helps!|||You need to use a Windows theme to display Aero graphics. If you are using an Ease of Access theme, some elements such as transparency and thumbnail previews will not appear. To view which theme you are using, open Personalization in Control Panel.



Open Theme Settings by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking Appearance and Personalization, clicking Personalization, and then clicking Theme.



The theme currently in use is highlighted.|||AMD Catalyst drivers on the AMD website.

"video card or driver doesn't support UBYTE4N vertex date..."?

i recently upgraded my sony vaio laptop from windows vista to windows 7, i tried playing modern warfare (recently bought) an the following messages appears eveytime i try to play "video card or driver doesn't support UBYTE4N vertex date" (intel 945 chipset family) what do i need to add or install or download to have it support UBYTE4N vertex data whatever that means?|||If you can’t find the right card drivers manually I would recommend just getting a software program that can do it for you. There is a program I use which will find drivers for just about all hardware devices. The best part is it takes a snapshot of your system specifications and matches the right driver to go with it.

Video Card problem on Windows 7?

About a month ago I upgraded my desktop computer to windows 7, but for some reason since I upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium I only get about around 30 FPS with the settings on max on any of the games I play, but what's weird is that I get the same amount of FPS even if the settings are turned all the way down, Before I upgraded to windows 7 I had Windows XP Media Center, where I would easily get 60+ FPS with maxed settings, I have a ATI Radeon HD 5500 video card I've installed all of the drivers and the catalyst control center but I still don't know what's causing this. x.x|||How much RAM do you have?



That is a good amount of RAM. I would have to know the other specs of your computer to pinpoint the problem. Your CPU might be slow, but if you have sufficient RAM it should perform. Check your processor speed against the game requirements, make sure you are running your ATI on a PCIe expansion slot (not to insult your intelligence).|||This can be the problem of RAM power.

Video Card locking up computer? - Windows 7? Overheat?

Hi, Need some help from the pro's here. I just got a new slimline computer and put a video card in - BFG GeForce 210 512mb. Installed their drivers / and windows 7 went and pulled drivers automatically as well.



http://www.frys.com/product/6046258



Unfortunately my computer now locks up once a day randomly. Sometimes just browsing the web. I had bought a previous video card MSI VN210 as well and it also had the lock up problem. Anyone know what causes this?



Other info:

Running windows 7

Running dual 23" monitors

Using low profile card due to slimline case.



Thanks for your advice and help!|||Your computer's specs would help. ie. make/model, processor, ram, psu wattage etc. otherwise its all a bunch of guessing.

edit: From what I can tell you are trying to run a 300watt card with a 220 watt power supply. Check the minimum specs of the card and then re check the specs of your computer... I ain't no rocket scientist but thats gotta cause issues.|||Try to move the mouse (pointer) across the screen.



The Mouse Does Not Move

If the mouse does not move at all across the screen, press the <Alt> key once and then press the <Down Arrow> a few times.



* If there is no movement on the screen, then the system is probably frozen meaning that all programs are locked up. Press and hold the computer's power button for 5 seconds until the computer shuts off, and then start the computer.



1. Check all the recently installed hardware or software. If you've installed either a new hardware or software, you need to uninstall it. If the problem does not persist, then that hardware or software caused the freezing/crash.



2. Run the antivirus program in your computer. Computer lock ups happen suddenly. The antivirus program should be updated regularly. If you have no antivirus program, you can make use of the free programs online. Search the web for free antivirus program that you can use to check which caused the crash or freeze.



3. Remove spyware through spyware removal programs. If you've finished tip number two and you did not find any virus, then there might be spyware or adware in your pc. You can download software programs that remove spyware/adware or you can use the free spyware removal software programs online.



4. Check the hard drive space. Check drive C and you must ensure that free space is over 20%. If the disk space is quite low, it may be the cause of random lock ups.



5. Check if your pc is overheating. Lockups are also caused by overheating. Make sure that the fan inside the computer does not have any dust buildup; cooling problems are also among the causes. The temperature should be just within the prescribed limits. Observe extra care when cleaning the case of your computer.



6. Check the computer's hard disk. You need to ensure that the computer's logical structure is not corrupted. Go to 'My Computer' and right click the 'disc C'. Click on the 'tools' tab. Check 'yes' if a prompt appears to restart the computer. After startup, some problems are fixed automatically. But if problems persist, the hard disk may need to be replaced. Run the 'disk defragmenter' so that the computer will perform well. This is one way to ensure computer reliability.



7. Check the computer's memory. Lockups, freezing or crashing are also related to memory. If you find memory problems, re-seat the RAM. After you've re-seat it and the problem persists, you should replace it because it is already defective.



8. Advanced users can check for hardware problems. Make sure that you do this appropriately.



9. Update the drivers and Windows. Outdated components can sometimes cause freezing. You need to update these components regularly

I have windows 7 installed on my machine, is there anyway i can install xp drivers without installing win xp?

because i heard about virtual xp in windows 7, and i already tried to install an xp video card driver on windows 7 but it didnt work, so is there a way it can work? thanks in advance.|||While you might be able to install some XP drivers in win7 through a virtualization environment, it is doubtful that you will get a video card driver to work. VirtualBox requires a valid XP license anyway, so you would need to install all of that first. Virtual environments are not known for high-res. They need to fall back on the video card of the host system to work, because you are viewing them through the host. If all else fails, install Ubuntu on your system, and then run Win7 in a virtualbox. Then your video card driver will probably work through the linux host. Back up first! All the best.

Bad video card drivers on minecraft? windows 7 32 bit v3.5 xDark Deluxe edition?

Bad video card drivers!

-----------------------



Minecraft was unable to start because it failed to find an accelerated OpenGL mode.

This can usually be fixed by updating the video card drivers.

do i need a new video card driver?|||Your computer cannot run Minecraft because it doesn't have a powerful enough video card.|||No you don't.

That guy is wrong there.

Go on Control Panel, Display (hardware and sound if you have vista), Settings, Advanced Settings, then troubleshoot - change the panel to the middle. There are many tutorials out there.

This doesn't work for me because I can't change the settings for some reason D:
