| Vista Home Premium x64 | Re: Geforce 9800 GT Resolution Problem any chance you can get into your device manager? if you can, have a look to see if your Gfx is installed and if theres no errors with the drivers, and any chance of a pic? |

| Vista Home Premium x64 | Re: Geforce 9800 GT Resolution Problem interesting, this is new to me, however, i have had a look on ECS' website, and interestingly this popped up, Due to the DRAM maximum size is 2GB at present and you need to make sure you have disabled the onboard ATi graphics. |

| Vista Ultimate x64 | Re: Geforce 9800 GT Resolution Problem http://pici.se/pictures/kKECMMzHD.jpg When i have not installed any drivers this is what i can see. Chipset is Nvidia so must be my geforce. Can it be i installed the wrong drivers? I formatet my hdd and reinstalled vista with english (US) settings and did not install the japanese nvidia drivers that comes with the cd. Downloaded latest nvidia drivers for 9-series, English (US), Vista x64. Hope this is gonna work. Edit: Nope, same problem... Edit: Yes!! I dled an older version of the driver. Works perfectly now! Thank you for taking time and helping me though ^^ Last edited by pocketboy; 12-29-2008 at 01:18 AM.. Reason: new info |
