New video drivers for Vista or XP virtual machines with WS 7.1?

Hello

My apologies if this information is somewhere obvious, but I looked through the forums and help and do not see it...

When I've upgraded to VMware Workstation 7.1 my Windows 7 VM obtained tools from VMware updated and therefore a new video driver.  I have now improved characteristics, for example, OpenGL 2.0, in the Windows 7 VM.

I noticed that my XP and Vista VMs do not seem to detect an upgrade of VMware tools with Workstation 7.1 and OpenGL for example is 1.1.

Is this normal, or what I need to do more to uninstall VMware tools for these older systems?

Thank you!

HOW CAN I FORCE THE INSTALLATION OF VMWARE TOOLS ON VISTA VIDEO DRIVER?

Maybe I'm not all Vista clients longer, but...

-Stop your comments and check that you have enabled the "Accelerate 3D graphics" option for your comments-> Virtual Machine-> display settings.

-Stop your comments and check that it uses Version 7 material: to highlight the comments-> VM-> change Version-> check that it uses the latest version «Workstation 6, 5-7.x»

-Turn on your guest, try to uninstall VMware tools, by restarting the guest and then reinsert the VMware tools.

-So that is no help, turn on your guest and try installation 'Edit' your VMware tools and see if there is a selection to install the video driver.

    Hi Alzaabi

    I wish that you check different threads here in the forum before opening a new topic of Vista drivers.
    Someone posted this link to the document from Toshiba:

    Windows Vista Driver Support for Toshiba laptops models
    http://support.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB7201SK002HR01.htm

    As you can see the A50 is not listed ;(
    Therefore, you should check the various unique drivers of another series or visit device manufacturing sites to get the driver for vista
    Good luck

  • Need new video card for an HP dc7900

    The original video card failed on my dc7900 (purchased in 2009) - a Nvidia Quadro NVS 290 PCie x 16. A repairman replaced with an ATI Radeon x 300 / x 550 but performance index increased from 3.2 to 2.0 and the driver is apparently causing BSOD when I use Google Earth or let the screensaver start. If I turn off the screen saver, the PC will crash when I work. ATI/AMD says it does not support the card under Windows 7 and their drivers for Vista. I have Windows 7 Ultimate with two monitors.

    I would get an updated map, but the designation of cards is a little confused and I don't know if the cards would work in the PC. It has PCI 1 and 2. The Quadro 290 has 256 MB. Can I switch to a 300, say, 512 MB, or even something more? The HP site for the dc7900 page recommend the Nvidia card but it does not sell and is not a recommendation of an alternate member. NVIDIA has not responded to an email asking a model of upgrade. Any suggestions? No problem, I have to be concerned as enough food?

    Hi Paul,.

    Thank you for the information. I ordered the card and hope it lasts. Good to know that speed chart will be better than the original map. I used to build my own PC from 386, 486 (using SCSI and OS/2 disks) and through first processors Pentium but the motherboard changes left most of my obsolete spare parts. It is safer not to do on the bleeding edge.

    On another forum, someone gave me advice on the use of Bluescreenview to know what causes accidents. It turns out that the ATI driver is the cause, and probably because the card is not supported under Windows 7 by the site Web of ATI. Once again, thanks for the help - these forums are great!

  • someone at - it audio and video drivers for a HP m7170n?

    someone at - it audio and video drivers for a HP m7170n? We had to climb a new hard drive and there was no disk backup with the driver information.

    Thank you!

    Yes, I understand your point.

    I'll assume you have XP Media Center Edition, which was the operating system that is provided with your PC.

    The specifications of your system also specify that your PC comes with the video card ATI Radeon X300SE, correct?

    Below should be XP video drivers you need for this card:

    http://support.AMD.com/us/gpudownload/Windows/legacy/pages/radeonaiw_mce.aspx?type=2.4.1&product=2.4.1.3.13&lang=English

    You can download the complete driver of features and software catalyst control center (the first download listed, or simply the WDM (Windows Driver Model) driver (without the catalyst control center software).

  • Satellite L20 - drivers for Vista available?

    Hello

    I use Satellite L20 with Windows XP. Now, I want to improve my OS to Vista/Windows 7. I've seen several people have not found drivers for L20. If I install vista on my L20 (PSL2XL-01R007), the drivers will be available?

    Please help me.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    > Now I want to upgrade my OS to Vista/Windows 7
    You want to upgrade to Vista * or * Windows 7?

    > I've seen several people have not found drivers for L20
    I think that it s depending on whether Toshiba provides drivers for Vista or Windows 7 for Satellite L20. These drivers are usually placed on the official page to download driver of Toshiba.
    Satellite L20 PSL2XL seems to be an Asian model, so I checked the Toshiba Asia page, but there are just available Windows XP drivers. The European page also shows only XP drivers :(

    This means that only XP is supported, but you can try to get all the drivers yourself on external pages. Probably, you will find all the drivers you need. Here are some pages where you can perform a search:
    [www.intel.com]
    [www.realtek.com]

    Well, as you say the European Toshiba page pilot provides drivers for Vista 32 bit and Win XP at this time.
    It seems therefore that the 64 bit Vista drivers are not available at this time!

    Therefore, you have to collect eth Vista 64 bit drivers with your own hands...

    Satellite A300 PSAG0S unknown to me, but on the European page, I created a similar model, PSAG0E. But the problem is that there is no drivers for Vista 64-bit, so I tried a Windows 7 64 bit and here I could found the more pilots. Normally, Windows 7 drivers should also work, they are compatible to Windows Vista downgrade.
