    nVidia GeForce 8500 GT, drivers won't install


    I have Windows 7 32bit installed on an ASUS P5RD1-VM mobo with an nVidia Geforce 8500 GT graphics card.

    I have tried numerous times to install the Windows 7 (32bit) Driver from manufacture site, but when it tries to install the drivers, I get an error message saying "No drivers were found that work with your device. Setup will now close."

    I don't get this! I'm on that graphics card right now, in Windows 7, and typing this thread...

    Also, in Device Manager, there is no "Display Adapter" listed.... I can't seem to find any evidence of a generic display driver either....

    I've already solved the problem of my sound not working (SoundMAX Integrated Digital HD Audio) and this is the last thing I need to get Windows 7 working for a REAL test run!

    How can I get these drivers installed?!

    Any help is appreciated

    Download the driver from NVIDIA's site.

    You might need a bios update for the motherboard if there is no standard vga in the display adapter section of the device manager. Install the latest one.

    Also in the bios, disable all unused ports like floppy, serial, parallel, com.... etc..
