Hello

I need some assistance. I have installed windows 7
My board is a EVGA 780i and I can't install my mainboard drivers from the disk because it only supports xp & vista
A check on their website also doesn't have any dowload for windows 7.
Is there anything I can do or they are not needed ?

usually the OS takes care of looking after the motherboard itself, the drivers you find you typically need are graphics, any wireless internet or ethernet sometimes, audio, and then peripherals.

everynow and then for some random reason you may need drivers for like USB or something, generally the microsoft site would have downloads for that that may be missing.



however, whether or not they are needed comes down to: is your computer on, loads up and runs? is anything missing or faulty? (check device manager) otherwise no they arent really needed.

Use these, latest for your board X64 version vista works with win7:

I have a 790i ultra and the drivers work fine with Win 7 RC1 7100 X64

Also download the latest system tools:

thanks for that. I was trying to install the main board drivers off the disk last night but the disk said i didn't have vista or xp and didn't let me proceed any further.
I'll try again tonight. with your links Once again thanks your Orcosmic !

and yeah axe wound, it was me. Who else is going to use my profile ?
I had to trial my own install to see if I got it right. Last time pauline advised me how to install a crysis patch I screwed it up and deleted the game, then tried to install the patch... Oops ! Yeah I am a barrel of laughs for IT techie nerds. The install took like 4 hours too and that was just win 7, crisis wars and office 2003.
Went into FTW server, challenged kelly to a cat fight, walked up to kelly, hit the wrong button and kelly fisted me and I died... Great start !
then gazz as WTFFTW was tk'ing me and I couldn't stop laughing
