(Solved) Need Video Driver for Windows 7 For an IBM R51 Think Pad

<< < (4/7) > >>

Boggin:
If Windows Updates has anything for your system it would normally come down with the monthly updates - I occasionally get one for my Realtek Wireless adapter, but I've never had one for my AMD video.

Have you run the Win 7 Upgrade Assistant yet ?

VicTully:
Not yet. Too many things happening today. I will get to it quickly.

Shane:
Open Windows Updates, click change settings on the left.

Make sure there is a check on recommended updates and Microsoft Update.

Then when you check for updates the drivers will either be listed in the recommended or the optional updates. (Normally anyways)

VicTully:
Thank you, my friend. It looks like it will be tomorrow before I get to the R51. This day has been nasty.

Thanks again for everyone's help.

OK. From last night.

As far as the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor. It reports Video Controller is not compatible with Windows 7 and Aero Support is not supported. Everything else is good to go.

Tried Intel_6.14.10.3732 & 1rd637ww and neither would install at all.

Tried 1ud164ww & 1yd302ww and they both installed, but when I rebooted the Device Manager reported there were problems during the install, so neither really worked. These were both the 82852/82855 GM/GME Graphics Controller, just one was later than the other.

That's where I am right now.

I am going to look at the updates, but I doubt anything will show up since the Upgrade Advisor didn't report anything.

Any suggestions?

Thanks again for all the help so far.
