    Hi everyone,

    I never thought this would be an issue, but as you know the Asus A8Js has a Nvidia Go7700 512 meg card...
    but for some reason EVERY DRIVER I TRY TO INSTALL NEVER WORKS!
    it gets to the setup and says "Setup could not find hardware compatiable"

    then it just exits.
    I installed Bioshock today and it said my drivers needed to be updated, and it directed me to the nvidia site with the Nvidia 6,7,8 Vista 32bit drivers.
    I downloaded, and when i tried to install, SAME ISSUE

    does anyone know HOW to install these drivers or WHERE A WORKING ONE IS!?

    im slowly coming to realize nvidia doenst support the Go7700 card ...

    Download the 163.44 drivers. Unpack. Download the modded inf-file. Copy it to the same folder as the setup.exe. Run setup.exe.

    Those drivers are AWESOME for Bioshock.
