Onboard Graphics advice

[longshanks]

I have a motherboard that has Nforce on it. It has on board graphics. Do i download the Nvidia graphics driver or the Nforce driver to update the graphics drivers? Ta

Nforce is usually Ethernet, IDE, Audio etc,.

What make is the motherboard you are using?.

 

[longshanks]

Gigabyte

You need the graphics drivers for that not the mobo drivers.

so Geforce 7 driver?

NVIDIA® GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a chipset is what is on the board

Aye, just get the latest Forceware driver.

You might need to get one with a modified .ini file though as Nvidia aren't great at supporting older cards. Even the 7300 I have lying around needs hacked drivers so I get the NGO Driver.

Oops sorry longshanks. I kinda drifted away whilst writing away in other posts. Good advice Ulfhedjinn .

So even though i have onboard graphics i still need the ordinary Nvidia Geforce 7 graphics driver?

 

[J.D]

Aye. The GPU chip built into your motherboard is just the same as they would put on a graphics card. Nvidia don't make 7025 graphics cards as the lowest I think is 7300 but I don't think that it would be any different.
