What you NEED is to stop posting over and over -- four times in an hour is ridiculous!!

I would have been ASTOUNDED if this worked on the 915 chipset -- as the last driver I saw that Intel wrote for this was in the Vista days, and it was an XPDM driver, not a WDDM driver.

Intel started WDDM drivers with the 945GM chipset -- anything older than that is relegated to XPDM drivers.

So, yes, it does support the GMA900 family, but only starting with the 945.

Sorry for the delay TheOne792, (had to prepare the Evening meal) What Mark Phelps said is correct , I failed to notice it was for 945 and above Try these drivers https://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&ProductFamily=Graphics&ProductLine=Laptop+graphics+drivers&ProductProduct=Mobile+Intel%c2%ae+965+Express+Chipset+Family&OSVersion=Windows+7%2c+32-bit* Run them under Admin rights http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/11841-run-administrator.html Hopefully you may have success with this :)

In addition to Pebbly's latest post, try running it in compatibility mode for Windows 7.

I know for a fact that the driver link I posted worked on Win7 -- as I have used those drivers myself on a laptop running the 915GM chipset.

Did you try the drivers from the linked page I posted? If so, what happened -- saying "didn't work" is not much use to us.

What version of Win7 are you running?
