My old Nvidia card busted (it was an old 6200... the components literally exploded. Just... don't ask....) So I got another card today. It's an ATI Radeon 4650 512MB by Diamond, and it has specs nearly doubling my old card. I installed it and the newly-purchased PSU and installed the driver on my Linux side - no troubles there. Took a few seconds.
But I cannot for the life of me install the drivers on my Windows XP side, which sucks because all of my games are on that side. I've uninstalled my old Nvidia drivers and used Driver Sweeper to make sure everything was gone, but I'm still recieving the "Setup did not find a driver compatible with your hardware or operating system. Setup will now exit" message. I honestly don't know what to do here... I can't play Freelancer or anything!
O/S: Windows XP
Platform: HP Pavilion a800n
RAM: 1GB
PSU: 450w (with a shiny blue LED light...)
V/Card: ATI Radeon HD 4650 (512MB DDR2 AGP)
S/card: Soundblaster Live! 5.1 Surround
Mouse: Logite- Okay, I'll stop....
------------
I have the most up-to-date mobo drivers too. Everything's shiny and up-to-date, except for this darn card... I'm already off to a bad start with ATI...
Someone help me out?
