the big dill Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Hello everybody, so i replaced my friends broken motherboard with the Asrock 4CoreDual-SATA2 and everything is working great, but the drivers wouldn't install... not the ones provided with the motherboard and not the ones that i can download from the website. it just tells me that i am installing that it doesn't recognize the hardware and turns off the installation... i am pretty sure this is a hardware related issue, and if not please tell me. any suggestions appreciated! cheers Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/848248-drivers-not-installing/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
HyBry Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 full system specs and OS used would be useful. also which drivers exactly, cause I believe many of them are not required...

the big dill Posted November 22, 2009 Author Share Posted November 22, 2009 win 7 ultimate (i think this might be the issue), and what do you mean a lot of them are not required? because if it isn't very necessary, then i am going to cancel the RMA.

John.D Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Whats the model of the mobo?? Win 7 will install generic drivers. (so will vista). The Asrock here, doesnt have Vista drivers, so I'm using the vista LAN and audio drivers on it. Its fine, hasnt crashed since I installed Vista on it. Whats NOT working on it??

the big dill Posted November 22, 2009 Author Share Posted November 22, 2009 everything is fine so far, im just worrying that later it will be too late for an rma and i dont want to pay for shipping and get done with business now... also i mentioned the motherboard in my main post "Asrock 4CoreDual" it's a silly name. Also, drivers for video card are not detected properly (temperature is not showing with everest like it used to and cannot overclock) thanks for the quick responses guys :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/848248-drivers-not-installing/#findComment-591882628 Share on other sites More sharing options...
John.D Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 What version of win 7 is it? 32 or 64 bit?? I take it you're installing Vista drivers, since there are no Win 7 drivers on the site. Have you installed the videocard drivers (its not onboard is it)??

I take it you're installing Vista drivers, since there are no Win 7 drivers on the site. Have you installed the videocard drivers (its not onboard is it)?? 32 bit not onboard, i believe its ATI Radeon 9700XT (very old) thats why i went with that motherboard, i needed the agp slot. and yes drivers are installed but i cannot overclock... and no temperature is being shown as it use to show.

John.D Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Well if it doesnt gives you that option, there's not much you can do, besides buy a better videocard Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/848248-drivers-not-installing/#findComment-591882740 Share on other sites More sharing options...
