Or you can just rename the Nvinfo in the folder to Nvinfo.pb and the whole thing works again. No need to re-download the entire driver package.

works like a charm , thanks mate

Really hoping someone can help me with this as it's driving me crazy. I have crawled the net and tried at least a dozen different ways to try and get it working to no avail.
I'll try not to ramble but want to give as much info as poss first time around

So here's where i am.

hardware. dell xps m1710 with a nvidia geforce go 7950 GTX.

clean windows 7 install initially setup the video with the standard vga driver as expected. I immediatley ran win update after install and it spotted the 7950 gtx immediatley and d/l installed the driver. After the requested reboot I saw the windows startup screen for the first 20 seconds or so then nothing but a blank screen. I thought i'd leave it for a while just incase something appeared, but nothing after 5 mins. I did notice the h/disk light appears to stop flashing pretty much as soon as the video blanks out. ( poss useful info ?? )

ok. so to summerise the next few days working on this. tried lots of video drivers inc the old dell ones that were for vista. ( i thought win 7 would run the vista driver even though crap 1 year + old driver. at least it should have got win 7 to boot then work from there. ) however no luck.

had various issues when trying other drivers. i tried multiple install methods with each. eg setup.exe from the driver folder OR "have disk" method from within device manager. As i say all failed . Various reasons eg they either flat refused to install OR installation completed but got the old error re could not install fully Or it couldn't find compatible hardware... basically all the usual stuff.

ok, so i come across the laptopvideo2go site and my heart starts working again. a quick once over the install methods etc and i'm starting to think this is going to be easy. OH DEAR ! a little premature.

So current situation is as follows.
downloaded the new win 7 32 bit drivers released yesterday ( with the rebuild modded .inf ).

installed by running the setup.exe and nearly fell over when it installed with out any problems. sorted i thought ...... WRONG.

same old problem. restart and win 7 starts up but then the screen goes blank 20 sec's after first graphics are shown on screen.

I rebooted , F8 and tried to boot into low res ( so it would still use the new 7950 driver but nothing fancy on the resolution etc ) . same prob again. starts to boot then blank screen 20 secs or so after the first few flower graphics ).


currently the only way i can boot into win 7 is via safe mode. When in safe mode i can however confirm in device manager that the 7950 gtx is there. ( although obviously can't do much with it as safe mode disables pretty much all setting in there and windows was loaded using the standard vga driver. ( thank god else i wouldn't be able to boot even in safe mode .. lol )

i would really appreciate it if anyone could give me a spark of inspiration on sorting this out. happy to not rule out something really simple that i might have over looked.

cheers
