    Hello to everyone - HP 550 issue


    I have an HP 550 Core 2 Duo 1,6 Ghz Processor with 2 GB Ram and integrated Graphic Card. I recently used an XP SP 2 and everything was ok, games were runing great. Now i am using Windows 7 Ultimate and whenever i start a game in the settings it shows i have an 64 mb graphic card and that is not possible to run it. Please anyone if has some solution - i would be very thankfull.

    Welcome!

    Try running the game in compatibility mode for XP.

    yes i tried that earlier and i tried it again but it's not working. It's about PES 2010. I am now dual booting Windows 7 and XP SP2 just for the games. I notice the same issue at my neighboor's HP550,and the different thing in the settings of the game is the graphic card in XP its showing 384 MB and in Windows 7 it's 64 MB. I want to switch complete from XP to Windows 7 but i can't because of this big issue. If you have any solution please help i will be very thankfull.

    Have installed the drivers for your Graphic Card?

    Can you post a screen shot Device manager?

    It's very lame to just say stick another 2GB memory because the very same game worked on xp - and now its not working, and after all its not the problem about ram - its about the graphic card - its integrated 384 mb and its showing that its 64 mb - so in the settings of the games i run it says that the graphic card its not enough not the ram memory

    You can see that the problem isn't in the drivers - i have downloaded all the drivers from the official HP site, i have some knowledge i am not a newbie but i have never experienced such a problem till now with windows 7,i would love to transfer completely to windows 7 now - but i cannot because of this so i am dual booting windows 7 and xp currently. Please if u have any solution i will be more then willing to try it. Thanks in advance
