Trouble with finding graphic card driver


Recommended Posts

Hi friends,

I have a computer with an nvidia VGA, know this from the label on its chips. I haven't any CD driver for it. Windows use generic drivers. I can't find the proper driver from the nvidia.com (even with its automatic find feature) and various websites :( . I have failed with the Everest program too. Here is Everest report:

Is the graphics card giving problems? If not, I suggest you leave it alone - complete with its current drivers. I see many computers that have all but died belonging to people who cannot resist the temptation to fiddle about upgrading this, that and the other without any need to do it. This applies especially to graphics drivers.

If the graphics is integrated into the motherboard, the drivers will be on the motherboard disk.

If you have a separate, removable card are you certain the details aren't printed on the card itself or in the manual that belongs to the computer?

Thank for reply...

The lack of proper driver is obvious, specially when moving windows and probably in the future when running games or ...

The graphic adapter is separate and removable.

My mistake, the nVIDIA word was on the card fan.

There're these letters on the back of card: RTVA-12A(1)

After all, shouldn't exist the driver for such card in the net?

I repeat that I have no disk or booklet with this computer.

Thank you so much.
