techPowerUp! :: Downloads

once its running it should display some information. post a screenshot here or details/name of your graphics card

thats why I told you to download this to know your GPU name -_-;

We need to know the make of your video card in order to tell you what drivers to install to fix this issue.

But every program said I have VGA..... but its not truth!!!!!

P.S. After I installed it all my problems where gone (except this one.....)
so it was a good decision anyway....

The only other option is to open up your Desktop computer & physically look at the card. Just a manufacture name would be sufficient for us (ATI, nVidia, Intel etc.)

   Note

It will more than likely be in the AGP (brown) slot between the CPU & the ISA (white) slots.

The best I can then suggest is
1.go to the manufacture web site for your system, check and get all the Latest recommended Drivers for your system.
2.Get the latest BIOS and flash for your system, many times a BIOS upgrade will enable your card. ,
and then go the the WEB Site for ea of the known Major Video Card Manufactures.
3. go to NVidia Site and run there "check for drivers" if it is a NVidia they will find if NO.
4. Go to INTEL and repeat same as #1, If NO
5. Go to ATI and repeat step #1, If NO.

Last by not least "DO RUN THE WIN7 COMPABILITY TEST" you might also check to see if your VIDEO Card is even recommended for VISTA.

I opened my computer and what it says is:

I have "NVIDIA nForce2".

What do I do now??

 

[Orbital Shark]

Excellent, if you go Here and use the AutoDetect option it should pick up your drivers.

If not then, manually download the nForce Professional 2000 series Vista driver. You can run it once downloaded in Vista compatability mode.

 

[DanR]

It didn't work I downloaded it ( nForce 2000 for vista 32x) and it still shows like I have the VGA!!!!!!!

 

[Orbital Shark]

That's so strange

Is there anything in the BIOS regarding Onboard vs AGP in anything GFX related?

 

[DanR]

Im sorry can you repeat this again but in simpler language?? (im sorry about that but as I said before im not so good in computer..... or computer language......)

 

[Orbital Shark]

When you first switch on your computer your get the POST screen (load of text & maybe an image). If you press F2 or 'Del' then you can access the BIOS settings. If you navigate all the menu options you may see something regarding graphics & other peripherals. Any you see, write down (with their current setting) & we can tell you if it's the 1 you need to change.

Danr. After you download and open the file have you been using this tutorial on the folder? If not maybe try this then run again.

BIOS:

I'm sorry but I can't see anything..... (But if I didn't saw something it doesn't say anything because I'm not so good in BIOS stuff......).

do you have another solution that even 5 years old can do??

[DanR]

Somebody please think of another way to help me I really need it!!!!

 

[Orbital Shark]

We're trying mate, just need to do more digging.

Have you tried to install CPUZ and check what it says on the the third TAB about your Motherboard model, can you post a screen shot of this window so we can get the full specs and then we should be able to get the onboard graphics spec.
