I'd suggest you to use a graphics card .... Not sure, but most probably this board doesnt have a vista/win 7 driver .
Thank you very much Arc. I think you are absolutely right.
This is the closest model number match I could find on the Kobain website, Model PI845GLM-AGP V1.0 motherboard based on your description and judging from some of the dates your mobo was manufactured in 2004ish.
Here is the Available Downloads link for the Mercury site but I am not certain how current the downloads are.
The Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor should have been run before you upgraded from XP to windows 7 as it would have pointed out any hardware/software incompatibilities and recommend a course of remedy.
However one option is to run the Intel® Driver Update Utility and it will automatically offer recommended driver updates for your Intel Chipset if any are available.
To check if you have any other missing drivers open Control panel > Device Manager > View > Show hidden devices and check to see if you have any drivers listed with yellow triangles beside them. If you do and you need to find additional drivers please post back with a detailed description or snip of device manager.
You're not going to find any drivers anywhere for that chipset as Intel dropped support for it even before Vista came out. The best you can hope for is whatever native drivers Windows 7 might install for it, or at best whatever of the last XP drivers for it that will install. If you try the XP drivers you will likely need to use compatibility mode,
Compatibility Mode
to get them to install.
Thanks for all your support guys....Thanks once again guys.
