    Hello,

    Ive recently upgraded to vista 64bit to make the most of a RAM upgrade.

    However, my Nvidia geforce 8600m gt is not being recognised.Ive tried downloading the 64bit driver from Nvidia but it says it cannot find and compatible devises.

    In device manager, it only shows the standard VGA graphics adapter, not the nvidia.

    Im using a dell inspiron 1720.

    Any help would be great!
    Thankyou
    J
