[SOLVED] Geforce FX 5200 with Windows 7 (Drivers)

SimonHuynh95 · 01-24-2010, 06:12 AM

Hey guys I'm planning the upgrade to Wins 7 and I'm looking for a driver for my video card to run in Windows 7 I've had Windows 7 before and I installed the driver but it doesn't show the Nividia control panel and in a game like counterstrike it just lags, if you guys can find anyone post it here in this thread thanks!

Nvidia's site doesn't list any 7 drivers for the 5200.

Then what should i do, i really want to upgrade to 7

i can't get a new vid card cause this vid card wasn't bought long ago and i want to keep it as it is.

I don't like using xp anymore so that's why i want to upgrade it to either vista or 7. vista isn't that bad is it?

In my opinion, Vista is the worst OS that MS ever made. Your money would be better spent on updating the GPU vs. purchasing Vista. IMHO

That card will work with Windows 7 (some can use Aero and some can't)
Just install seven and it will pick up drivers for it

i'll just install vista then cause i'm getting a new computer later and i don't use it for gaming i just game when i feel like i don't game all the time, what the heck i'll just go with vista cause now most new computers come with 7 it's a lot easier like that. Thanks guys for your replies =]
