    Okay I've been going at this for close to 3 hours total now. I've installed about 5 differnt drivers, restarted over 50 times and can't get anything to work.

    I just installed Windows 7 Ultimate N today because my RC copy expires Sunday/Monday. So, after I get everything installed I notice I don't have Aero. I'm like, okay. So I start looking around for the correct drivers so it'll work. Now, mind you I had Aero working fine on my RC, I think I remember installing some Beta Windows 7 Nvidia that worked fine.

    So, I come to being stuck in this place where I have no clue what to do because I've tried like 80 things. So, I naturally came to the the place that helped me once before.

    I have a Nvidia GeForce 86000M graphics card and am running Windows 7 Ultimate N.

    So, any idea guys?

    Uninstall driver then boot into safe mode. Run Driver sweep restart and install your drivers again and it should be fine
