W7 64 Ultimate install over existing setup - CODES 37 Video problem
Hello all and thank you in advance.
Sad I only come here looking for answers but I hope you can provide :)
OK, a few days ago I had video card problems. On device manager a little yellow exclamation mark appeared against my video card, ASUS NVIDIA GeForce 8800GTS 512M PCIe Video Card
Seems a code 37 is a problem? I get vga out and that's about it. No fancy stuff, lucky I suppose.
Tried near everything but seems the PC can't see the card(s)?
I googled as you do and consensus was get a new video card.
I bought a Gainward 460 SE and swapped over... Still have the little yellow exclamation mark?
Still tried all over the last days and proved the new card work in another PC build OK.
Seems I have to reinstall W7 and I am reasonably happy to jump that way.
My 'C' drive is an SSD so my question is...... can I just insert my legit install CD/DVD and install on the same SSD with out problems?
Yes I expect to back up all beforehand.
