Geforce 8600m GT on windows 7 problem
Hello :)
well, i first encountered this problem today when I instaled windows 7 pro32 bit on my Forcebook Diablo...
at first I thought, ok, the display looks odd, the resolution is very small, almost no color, only the primary colors are displayed, and ok, i can figure this out, ill just download the latest drivers from nVidia site and the problem will be solved.
but no :)
i figured, windows 7 will find graphic or video drivers on their own, but no luck, so i installed the drivers from nVidia site. I restared my laptop, but nothing changed. i went to device manager, and windows recognised my geforce 8600m gt, but nevertheless, it doesnt work... and i can't figure out why. before i installed that driver, it recognised the GPU as standard VGA graphics adapter
I did some research and found out that my Forcebook Diablo is a costume made laptop or something like that, and that windows 7 can't find the necessary drivers for the GPU... something like that, im not quite sure. i heard that Dell and Toshiba laptops with simillar GPU-s had simillar problems
so, is there a way I could download or maybe modify the driver or something
pls guys, im quite desperate here :)
thx for your help
