win 7 instead of win 8 installed on hp g6 2304 au - no direct x active  

Hi,

the laptop I am working on is a HP G6 2304 Au - because of a Virus had to go back to WIN 7 Pro SP 1 -
which I did - now3 realising that no direct X activity in dxdiag? Tried to install all sorts of drivers so far but nothing changed in dxdiag. Cant run any game software ??? :-( Any Ideas?

Graphic card is Radeon HD (2.7Gh?) would be real cool to get some help... after 7 hours hardcore try...

Can you do option one of this and post the file it creates,

System Information File - Create in Windows

thanks for the quick answer. attached is system informstion grandioso.nfo in rar

ah ya... here it is

OK, you are using the basic driver from the installer,

Code:

	Standard VGA Graphics Adapter

Have you checked windows update? That should give you a driver for it.

derekimo, thanks a lot but problem solved... direct X features are turned off as soon as there is a homegroup sharing center involved in the network options.

Good One.

Peace and Cheers...hour 8... HAHAHA! AGE OF MYTHOLOGY IM COMING!

You're welcome, you do need a graphics driver though.

I'm glad you found a work around but you should check windows update for a graphics driver.

The ones from HP are for W8 for your model so the next best option is windows update since it's a laptop.
