will NVIDIA GeForce Go 7200 work in Windows 7
I am getting ready to do a fresh install of Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit. It is on an HP DV2200, running Vista Home Premium with an Intel Core2 CPU T5200 @1.60GHz processor. And it has the NVIDIA GeForce Go 7200 GPU.
I ran the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor and it informed me that Windows Aero will not work on my computer because my current graphics adapter won't support the Windows Aero interface. I'm surprised by that message since this computer seems to fall within all of the minimum system requirements.
I checked the NVIDIA website for a Windows 7 driver for the GeForce Go 7200 GPU, but it says that one is not available. I am currently running the most updated version for Vista, 179.48. NVIDIA DRIVERS 179.48 BETA
My question is this: Do you think that I will be able to run Windows 7 Home Premium on this computer with my current driver? Can I run the video driver in Vista compatibility mode?
Thanks in advance for your help. I appreciate it.
