Brand and Model of the PC?
Most manufacturers have the drivers available on their web site.

compaq SR1750NX

This was originally a XP model?
open device manager and let us know if you see any yellow question marks or red x's.

Then just disregard that error it has to do with IPv6 conversion to IPv4 to pass through a IPv4 router(6 to 4)> http://support.microsoft.com/kb/932520

Lets see if and what version of .net framework is installed on the system.

To find which versions of .net framework are instaled on your

PC Copy and paste this line of code into the Internet Explorer address bar and

press enter the last entry will be the latest version installed

javascript:alert(navigator.userAgent)

rconsul · 03-08-2009, 07:06 AM

.NET CLR 1.1.4322 is this right?

**wrench97** · 03-08-2009, 07:21 AM

If that is the last entry you need to update the .net framework and then try installing the ATI Vista drivers
Get 2.0 here> http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

And 3.5 here> http://www.microsoft.com/net/Download.aspx

rconsul · 03-08-2009, 09:24 AM

**wrench97** · 03-08-2009, 10:11 AM

What`drivers are you using?

rconsul · 03-08-2009, 10:34 AM

i am using the drivers on the cd that came with the card. 2D/3D Accelerator Driver Install CD V6.2

**wrench97** · 03-08-2009, 11:27 AM
