My computer has a video drive but it cant install it. What can i do?

**Slonopotam845** · 09-28-2007, 04:06 AM

Video drive? Do you mean a DVD drive?

**Nzmoafzn** · 09-28-2007, 04:08 AM

Nope. My video drive

**JulieSmithXIV** · 09-28-2007, 04:08 AM

Do you mean your video card driver? If not, tell me what brand this "video drive" is and what model #.

**hhynmtrxcp** · 09-28-2007, 04:09 AM

yeah video card driver

**Sakkola** · 09-28-2007, 04:10 AM

What makes you think you can't install it? What's happening? I mean, if you are viewing the monitor, there is SOME driver installed.

**Mediconlinee** · 09-28-2007, 04:14 AM

It says found new hardware. Video controller(VGA Compatible) but then it says that it wasnt installed because it cant find the right software

**wmtravelservice** · 09-28-2007, 04:15 AM

Hmmm...interesting.

**mpegdvdclip** · 09-28-2007, 04:15 AM

Did you just install this new video card? If so, you need to insert the disc that it came with. If not, and all of a sudden this message popped up, you need to goto your device manager and see if the video card has any kind of conflicts or if it says it's not functioning properly, otherwise, if none of the above occured, I wouldn't worry about it unless it KEEPS happening everything you turn the PC on.

**Frjrbefd** · 09-28-2007, 04:16 AM

Yeah it is. I cant play any games.

**nizcreare** · 09-28-2007, 04:17 AM

It keeps happening. I was able to play games a few days ago then this happened and i cant play and games. It says its not installed and not working properly

**Madjostok** · 09-28-2007, 04:17 AM

No its not new it came with the computer and ive had it for a long time

**CenICrerflind** · 09-28-2007, 04:19 AM

Dont have the CD

**Beedcardabeme** · 09-28-2007, 04:19 AM

You need to either take out your Video Card CD, or, if it's a Dell/Compaq/HP or any prebuilt system, take out the resource CD and try to reinstall the video card, but tell it to look on the CD.

**Saqwnht** · 09-28-2007, 04:38 PM

Then you will need to find out what kinda video card it is. Is it an add-on, or are you using the one built into your motherboard? If it's the one built in to your motherboard, then you should be able to use the Windows XP (or whatever Op system you are using) CD, or if you have a CD for the motherboard itself, you can use that one. Otherwise, if you added the video card on, then you need to find out the manufacturer, i.e. NVidia, ATI, or whomever it is, and what model it is and goto their website and download the driver.
