Installing Windows 7 on Emachines t3418?
I have an older Emachines desktop here that came with XP, but also says windows vista capable. I would assume, if it is Vista capable, it would also be 7 capable. I have an older 7600gt video card in it, and have upgraded the RAM to 2gb maximum...
Anyways, when I go to install 7, I get an error like.
'A CD/DVD Device Driver is missing. Please insert the media with this driver, and click continue'
I have searched for any missing drivers. I have tried installing to two different hard drives. One a WD1600BB, the other a more modern Seagate 500gb Sata...
I have tried two different DVD drives to install from, one an older IDE, the other a newer SATA.. and in all cases, I get the same error. I also made sure all USB devices and card readers were completely removed from the mother board..
Any advice appreciated..
