INF error video driver not found

Antneedshelp! · 10-17-2006, 03:56 AM

hi, i recently bought a laptop

specs:

Fujitsu/Siemens Amilo

AMD athlon M 1.8ghz processor
512mb RAM
60gb HD
dvd rw drive

anyway, i wiped it and reinstalled all the stuff i needed, the graphics were already good when id finished wiping it and turned it on not like when you have no card drivers intalled and its dead big and crappy colours, this was 1024x700+ and 32 bit colour, anyway i noticed that the internet when i dragged down a page went really slow and like jerky, i thought nothing of it at the time and went on fiddlin with it. Got to the dvd player, put a dvd data disk in and it couldnt read it i thought thats odd, tried the disk in my pc and it worked fine, then i tried a film dvd and it wouldnt play, said i needed decoders, my friend sent me a program windvd7 and i put that on, when i start this up it says 'cannot create overlay try reducing resolution and colour settings' i tried that nothing different happened. Im 90% certian that the graphics card in it is an ATI 9000 64mb mobility card so i checked on google and tey make these laptops with this card, so i went ahead getting the drivers and that, tried to install them, didnt work. 'INF error video driver not found' then 'try to set up with standard VGA drivers first' this happens everytime, ive got numerous driver packs and all the same. i went on the windows facility where you can pick the drivers from there and i picked ati 9000 [family] microsoft drivers. seemed to work, on the advanced in display settings it picked up that it was 64mb and stuff, and i turned the internet on and the dragging down is normal speed! however the dvd player can still not create overlay

whats going on?!

could anyone help please?

try some older ATI drivers like 5.12, the newer ones are propably not compatible with the mobile card.
