I just upgraded my XP to te new Vista beta 2. I came to Nvidia website to find the driver for my 7900 GS on my Dell E1705. However after downloading the driver (~34MB) and run it it couldnt detect any hardware installed on my laptop.
This is the site where I downloaded the driver ( http://www.nvidia.com/object/winvista_x86_88.61.html).
Any help please?

Go to that site, download the .inf file that corresponds to your driver number, and put that in the folder that has the driver files, it should be replacing another file. Run setup again and it should work. -
