Upgrading to Windows 7 HP Pavilion dv6500 and have a problem with the resolution

OK, here's my problem. I had Windows Vista, has been sick with it. I'm not used to ask someone if I can or can not install some software or OS, so I have two formatted partitions (recovery hp too) and installed windows 7 now, I discovered that he had a lot of problems with the drivers. I have successfully resolved all of them, even my hp legacy works and everything else, except the driver Nvidia. My screen resolution is 1024 x 768 and should be 1280 x 800. I tried all the drivers that are provided in the topic above here (dv6000 - dv9000 update for Win 7 or something like that) also downloaded and installed this driver "179.48_notebook_winvista_win7_32bit_beta", nothing helps worked on this problem for 2 days, am tired and ask for help I need resolution 1280 x 800 on my screen , and I now have 1024 x 768.

PS sory for my English.

Dan or one of the others may be able to help if you post exactly what indicates the error.

As you say you are not a noob so maybe you need to change something in the NVIDIA Control Panel. Maybe go to the advanced option when you're at NVIDIA.

Personally when I clean installs I delete, and format the entire disk before installing W7. Doing it this way usually prevents this kind of error occurs. When you use the W7 install disk to format, it may not remove all of the old files registry Vista and can cause problems.

If you start from scratch once again, this may solve your problem, but there is no guarantee.

It took 4 tries on my HDX from Vista to W7 to do things.

I just took a glance at my NVIDIA advanced and under Show options there is an option to "manage custom resolutions. Here I could input what I wanted. What's your has that?

    Thank you!

    I remember that when I tried to install the driver, there's a message that says that it is said that it is not supported.  I don't know if I reinstalled the older operating system and then the new driver and vista or if there was a button to install the driver, even though it was not taken in charge.  Most likely, I installed the driver on the old XP operating system and then applied the upgrade to Vista. I always run a clean install to clean any spyware etc. The driver supports the X 9 live is what it takes. Use Vista driver is already installed.  I plan to upgrade to windows 7 in January and display the results.

  • I installed a freeware program called "truecrypt" and have a problem with the startup.

    I've since deleted, but when I start my computer it starts with the bootloader "truecrypt". I can start my computer, but only after I press "ESC" to bypass the boot loader. The bootstrapper calls the password I put in place, but forgot since. I can't find the files in windows. How to remove the bootstrapper?

    Hello

    You need to probably start with a Vista disk and run the Recovery Console, and then run a startup repair.

  • I have a problem with the active WiFi Seagate GoFlex TV Media Player asking for a net user ID and a password.

    Original title: Net User ID & Net password

    After the upgrade from Vista to W7-64 CV, I have a problem with an active WiFi Seagate GoFlex TV Media Player asking for a "Net User ID & Net password" to log.  I used all imaginable combinations of IDs & passwords, but they all lead to logon fails. I'm almost certain that it is a W7 security problem because others with the same players who went to W7 face the same problem.  I found many supposed fixes online, but none works.

    I am aware that MS W7 works as it should and Seagate is not their problem, but if anyone can recommend a change of security to help this issue, I guarantee a pass towards the sky.

    PS: All the sharing, etc. continuously.  are installed as they should be.

    The only reference to Net User ID and password I can find is on page 46/47 of the User Guide. If this is not the user name and password of the Windows account that you want to share files with, I don't know what it is.

    I guess patches that you tried to include those that are mentioned here:

    http://forums.Seagate.com/T5/FreeAgent-theater-and-GoFlexTV/logon-fail-home-network-Windows-7/TD-p/70540

    It might be worth checking that you have the latest firmware, just in case.

    I use an analog input on a PCI-6224 and are having problems with the clock source. I'm trying samples of 16 different analog inputs very quickly. I have the sample mode: Timed Single Point material. The rate, that I am running is the maximum (250 kHz (15625Hz per channel)). I left the default clock source and trying to taste several times. The analogue input works for a short time (2-3 seconds) and then everything stops. I'm doing something wrong or is there something I'm missing? Any advice would be great.

    That's how you samples using the sample clock clock. If you see a delay then something is wrong with how you track/data visualization.
