I snagged the latest closest thing from Microsoft Update. If anything works, it should be this. Uncab this, right click the Standard VGA Controller icon in Device Manager, update driver, and point it where you uncabbed it.

I don't know what to suggest now as i've just checked ATI website and there is only a description of the device and not any drivers
I did all that leg work. Took me forever busting open installers to decode inf data etc. I put the right driver from Microsoft Update Catalog on my dropbox and linked to it above.
I would definately do what baarod is suggesting in post #12, he know's what he's talking about
Got the file to download, and got it to install. I was so excited!
Unfortunately, the behavior of the display is exactly the same. I only have the option of 640x480 4 bit color in the screen resolution properties. Also, there's still that yellow triangle, telling me the device cannot find resources. Images of the result attached. I *really* appreciate your helping me with this! My wife is very anxious for me to get this working for her (she loves win 7 and is hoping to be able to use this machine, but this display resolution is just not acceptable).
Any possibility of an HP bios update out there somewhere? I read something about a "HAL" change from XP to Vista that might be causing trouble here? That's really where my "expertise" ends, so I don't know.
Yes, these shots of the display are immediately upon uncabbing and successfully installing those drivers from baarod (THANK YOU!). I was so excited when it successfully installed! (Note: The other two items w/o drivers you see in the display - modem and audio - just haven't been installed yet, there's no problems there that I know of, just stuck on the display).
i went to ati website and they had the basic windows 7 drivers listed for the igp 320m, id try installing these ATI Catalystâ„¢ Beta Driver Package for Windows 7 7 Beta - 32-Bit Edition
