Hello, I recently installed Windows 7 on a laptop with XP previously. Everything is running fine apart from the graphics card, the Display Adaptor listed in Device Manager is "Standard VGA Graphics Adaptor."
No nVidia drivers will install because my "hardware does not support them," it's like W7 isn't aware the GPU exists.
I've ran Everest and it does show that the chip didn't run away:

I'm grateful that something can find my GPU!
Any advice would be greatly appreciated as this is my only computer, and Windows 7 is lovely!
Relevant system information:
Windows 7 - Home Premium - 32-bit
nVidia 8600m gs w/ 512mb dedicated
2gb system RAM
Edit: Some things actually work better now, such as the Realtek sound card.
