MANEMAN Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 Hi There,You may have a lot more luck, and make more progress if you can identify the make and model of your graphics card (Onboard/Offboard)(It would have helped if you had given this information. - We have no way of knowing what graphics you are using from the information you have supplied)Once you have done this you will be able to search for the manufacturers drivers download on the internet. (Google, or straight to the manufacturers website)Without such information it is almost impossible to find the correct driver.Be precise in what you are searching for, and dont be too disappointed if you find that your graphics card is not supported by the manufacturers of the said graphics card for Windows 7.It may require that you purchase a new and more up-to-date card.Try to identify your graphics with the links below./>http://www.gtopala.com//>http://www.belarc.com/free_download.htmlJohn.

Boris Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 Enter your Service Tag number here :-/>http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/driverslist.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&os=WW1&osl=en&catid=&impid&SystemID=PLX_PNT_CEL_GX270This should enable you to see what video drivers it offers you (probably only for XP).I would hazard a guess that there are no specific Win 7 drivers from Dell for whatever your graphics chip/card is ....... but it should hopefully tell you what you have and which manufacturer's web site you neede to be looking on.
