If it's the VGA driver you want then it's here: DriversI can't give a direct link to the one you need because you have to select your operating system from the drop down menus. Select Video from the first menu and then select your OS from the second one.If you want a driver for Windows 7 there is not a specific one, then you would use the Vista version. Please be patient after clicking the link I gave you, it took a while for the web page to appear but it does work.

Hi! Please go to this page, scroll down a bit, and click the "Download" tab, and then scroll to the bottom and click on "VGA" and click download (any of the buttons). I hope this is the driver you requested!

Test your PSU or replace it if your power supply units fan is not working your PSU is faulty

One bad lead can cause a computer to continue on a cycle or to shutdown or fail to detect/ boot up a computer hard drive

Test all leads that attach to your hard drive including electrical extensions,IDE,SATA

the leads from your "((MOTHERBOARD TO YOUR HARD DRIVE))" make sure they have a secure connection and are not faulty or just replace them they could be faulty make sure all leads that are attached to your drives dvd\cd 3 1/2 inch floppy have secure connections and are not faulty even the electrical extensions or just replace them they could be faulty a computer needs its connections to continue its cycle and have an end so any faulty leads will end up with a computer error even something as small as a faulty electrical extension or fan lead can cause this problem

follow the troubleshooting procedure a computer needs all of the data and electrical current to travel through every device and to have an end to be able work properly

a motherboard and a hard drive any leads between them will fail before your motherboard or your hard drive if its a flat ribbon 40 pin type IDE replace it this will be the first to fail check all electrical extensions make sure they are securely seated even the cd/dvd floppy drives need to have current go through make sure these drives are working also it could be a dirty computer clean all of the dust from your computer you could use a vacuum cleaner but whatever you use make absolutely sure there is no moisture gets to anything in your computer and before you touch anything be sure to wear an earth strap hope this helps

Hi. Please click here to download the driver for your device. Thanks.

cmi 8738 is a cheap solution. first disable the on board ac97audio in bios setup,then install the pci card into the pci slot. usually the system can find the sound card and auto install driver , if not, setup the driver manully.

Test your PSU or replace it

Test all leads that attach to your hard drive including electrical extensions,IDE,SATA and

the leads from your motherboard to your hard drive make sure they have a secure connection and are not faulty or just replace them there probably old and faulty

hope this helps

From the manufacturer's web-site:

http://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWebSite/Product/Product_Detail.aspx?DetailID=552&CategoryID=1&MenuID=16&LanID=0

download the device-driver for the video-adapter.

You have to got to the Motherboard manufacturers web site, you should be able to download a user manual and drivers from there. If there are no Win7 drivers, there's probably no support.
