Where the fudge do i find nVidia Go 7400 Win7 drivers?

LeperousDust · 26-05-2009, 23:09

I'm already hating this, windows 7 is rubbish, and nVidia are also (more) rubbish for writing drivers with the eyes shut using only their noses for the past few years.

Need pointing in the right dirrection, and yes i've tried Laptopvideo2go, i've got two i thought would work, one is for vista64 understandably Win7 hates it, otheris for Win7 but 7400 isn't in the inf so Win7 again doesn't like it.

Hooray for nVidia and their **** drivers yet again.

I'm surprised the Vista64 ones didn't work.

You tried letting windows update find drivers?

When I installed Windows 7, windows update found the right drivers for my Nvidia card and not had a problem. So I'd suggest giving that a shot if you haven't already.

Well i didn't actually tell it to check i just assumed since i connected to the internet and it updated all sorts else it had tried, i'll give it a go now though

nVidia really did screw up a massive one with their last few series of cards, so so very bad, i'm more annoyed it didn't really hurt their market penetration because they managed to hide it so well and so long from competent users. Average Joe going to PC world still wouldn't know they're a pile of ****. Grrrrr....

Wooooooooooow, ok back to being impressed. Device manager, right click update, checks the internet, boom downloads installed, couldn't be easier. Actually so impressed i can't believe it, windows has never been able to sort its arse from its elbow drive wise...? 5 stars this time!

Yeah it was good like that for me too
