If you installed Vista yourself, then you need to get updated drivers
for your motherboard. You have an Nvidia NForce motherboard so either
look for the driver at Nvidia or at the computer mftr.'s website if you
have an OEM machine like an HP or a Sony. If this is a generic computer
or a homebuilt one, you need to know the exact model of your motherboard.
General drivers information:
Never get drivers from Windows Update. Get them from:
1. The device mftr.'s website; OR
2. The motherboard mftr.'s website if hardware is onboard; OR
3. The OEM's website for your specific machine if you have an OEM
computer (HP, Dell, Sony, etc.).
Read the installation instructions on the website where you get the drivers.
To find out what hardware is in your computer:
1. Read any documentation you got when you bought the computer.
2. If the computer is OEM, go to the OEM's website for your specific
model machine and look at the specs (you'll be there to get the drivers
anyway)
3. Download, install and run a free system inventory program like Belarc
Advisor or System Information for Windows.
