Windows 7 - Windows 7 driver solution

**eminent1410** · 12-05-2008

If you can't load driver vista for windows 7, you can use DriverMax (Free, search by google) to backup driver from Windows Vista (Network, printer,Sound or Graphics cards...).Then set up windows 7 and restore driver.All is OK.

Using DriverMax
1, Download DriverMax - FREE driver download program for Windows XP & Vista .
2, Export Driver (best way is export all driver to "X" folder of D:\ or E:\ (not OS installation disk)
3, Install Windows 7
4, Import Driver from "X".
5, Wait and OK.

Thank you for your solution. It solved my GPU problem. DriverMax is now on my USB Drive of MUST INSTALL FIRST PROGRAMS.

DF post this up in the same thread...
and please use the restore from driver max..(install it again)
and then point it to that folder...
it should show up then install

Correct - you cannot just try to install the drivers from that folder, nor can you install Driver Max and try to 'backup' your drivers again. You have to reinstall Driver Max in the new OS and then use Import, just as stated above.

If you're still having issues, please post back with exactly what is going on and exactly what you're doing.
