Uninstalld Nvidia Chipset by accident! Help!

I was trying new drivers for m Nvidia GeForce go 7600 (alienware m5550), and I used driver sweeper to uninstall both the driver and chipset. Now, the chpset is permenantly uninstalled, and I dont know where to download it. Also, without the chipset, when I go into windows update for windows 7, it won't automatically install the my graphics driver, which it did when I first formated this computer.

Also, does anyone know whats the best overall driver for the geforce go 7600? I don't know why, but most of the games I play have really weird stuttering, and these games aren't even graphics intensive! For example, F.E.A.R.

 

Hmm, do you have good framerates, just stuttering every second, which makes game unplayable...?

 

I have decent fps until it stuttering, and when it starts stuttering, it keeps on going. It was like this too when I had windows XP and windows vista, so the OS is not the problem.

 

I'd be intrested to find the fix for this, it's happening to me as well...

 

the obvious solution would be to re-install the chipset driver...

 

He doesn't know where to download it, that's his problem.

Have you tried the alienware support section, they keep all the drivers there.

His laptop isn't a m15x.

 

oh. duh... my bad. might be in MyHive, as you've already suggested.

 

Try this link out...it's to the XP drivers section for the m5550 on the alienware support site...you don't need a password to get there, all the drivers you need are there I think

Is the regular chipset driver the same as Nvidia Chipset driver? I tried downloading and installing the regular chipset driver found on the alienware site, but I dont think its the right one.

 

I don't think cleaning the Nvidia chipset drivers with driver sweeper is uncommon. I mean, it's actually recommended in the SLI Guide at the top of this forum (step #8). I've always done it and it never gave me a problem.

 

Actually.. with my Gateway 7811FX I accidentally cleaned the NVIDIA chipset once..gave me nothing but problems after that. I found that installing the stock GPU driver package that came with the computer also installed the chipset again. Then I just updated from there. I'd hope the stock AW drivers would do the same.

 

The problem with that the CD's are for windows XP, and I'm using windows os 7. Bah = /

And I can't even find a CD with the drivers on it. Please help

Also try looking over this. http://www.intel.com/support/chipsets/sb/CS-022034.htm

For win 7 drivers, just use the correct bit version of the vista drivers.

 

call me stupid (but you have to stand in line for this) but would not the Nvidia site have the needed drivers?

 

Quite possibly not. I don't recall ever finding mine there. It's that whole lack of mass support for notebooks. Different systems use diff chipsets.. That's why I was thinking he should download the original driver from AWs support page and install it. Or see if they have an XP version for download. Don't you guys have 'hives' or something where you can download drivers such as this?

 

well, as i said, i was nto sure. i understand driver support for notebooks was nill for a time, but recently they have started to support drivers for laptops.
i just thought maybe the site (nVidia) would at least have chipset ones.
was worth a shot....

ps: glad your banned again...better that way...

 

yep they do

goto ( www.nvidia.com) and goto download drivers, their it will give you option for platform driver= chipset driver and graphics driver..

 

Where are is the platform drivers section located, and how do I know which one to downlaod?

 

dude.. I mean, really..

That's the NVIDIA driver and chipset for XP *from* AW. Like I said in my previous message, visit AW and download it. So, what's the problem?

 

Where do you see the word "chipset" anywhere on that page? Also, I already downloaded the drivers from the alienware page. It installs the driver, but not the chipset. I have stated many times it's the graphics chipset I needed. And last of all, why do you keep telling me to download windows XP drivers, I stated in my OP that I had windows 7, which uses windows vista, at least to my knowledge.

And btw, going to the alienware site and re-downlaoding the driver was the first thing I did, before I even posted on this forum.

 

link to AW's Vista drivers for your rig....if you can't find what you need here I'm not sure what to tell you...

The nvidia "chipset" will be either part of the video driver package.. Or the audio driver package. It's not like you have a nvidia mobo in the machine. Have you ran driverssweeper and had it analyze the nvidia chipset to see if it finds anything? Cause there are only 3 items total you can install regarding nvidia. The video driver, audio driver, and nvidia system tools. If the first two aren't helping, then install the sys tools.

 

dude the chipset driver is in there .....and hes right ...not much else it can be ....unless your telling us somethign differnt i cant help
