well, the subject says it all..

but i had problems with programs and games i was running.. they were always crashing. so i looked up new nvidia drivers and found something that said.. uninstall drivers and intall this one.
i uninstall the driver, reboot my machine... click on setup.exe for the new drivers and it said compatible hardware not found.

not i have ****ty resolution and no video memory and i can't find the proper driver.
can anyone please help me?

thanks

tried windows update.. it says that the best driver is already installed.. which is just a standard vga driver.. therefore not true..

i even installed service pack 1 and it didn't help at all.

and on the nvidia website.. i downloaded the geforce series 7 drivers and again.. when i install.. same message.. "not compatible with installed software.."

arg.. i don't know what else to try.
:(

thanks anyway

This has really got me scratching my head. Your model is A205-S5831, correct? If I go to Toshiba here: Toshiba Support - Content List it lists the driver as ATI. If I google A205-S5831 video I get a lot of references to Intel. Wow Toshiba is confusing! Officially for the Go 7300 series, drivers are supplied by the OEM and not nvidia.

Take a look here, maybe one of these will work for you. download from Guru3D.com

well.. it seems to have done the trick..
i mean at least i was able to install it and fix the resolution a bit.
thanks for that. :)

to be more specific.. my laptop model is satellite a200-1al

but these drivers seems to have worked.
it's the first one i tried since my error .. that actually worked.
so thanks a million for that.
truly appreciated!
