Windows 7 wont install drivers

[MaximusExtreme]

Why 7 wont install drivers at setup i tried many versions nothing done any help?

 

[micropage7]

try from update driver from device manager, if it recognized but has no driver it will be marked, you will find it by right click
or try removing it from device manager then restart, after restart it will search for new driver try to install from there or run the setup or try updating the driver thru device manager

It really was in the wrong forum before. Someone from the staff has moved it to the right one.

On topic: did you you use the administrator account in Windows? Did you use the driver CDs that came with your hardware?

And checking the BIOS is pointless, because that is not related to your problems.

And please write normally, with attention to things like spelling and punctuation, if you wish to be understood. Your latest post is barely comprehensible.

You hardware meant be to old & doesn't support windows 7?
Maybe you d/l the wrong driver? (32/64bit)?
Get all the recent driver on the web for each of your hardware (Nvidia , AMD , realtek ,etc...) for your windows 7 & make sure it's 32bit or 64bit depending on your OS?

Please edit & filled up your system Specs

@goodman crosshair iv mobo 1090t cpu.

@chev.. checking the bios is not pointless updating the bios resolves many on board problems like the ethernet etc. what is with the administrator?

i dont think anyone here understands what your asking either when its nearly a 90% english dominated Tech forum.
Step 1
reinstall windows from scratch
Step 2
install all drivers from the cd that came with the god damn motherboard *common sense*
Step 3
update windows
Step 4
install misc etc crap like flash java etc etc
Step 5
Install GPU drivers
Step 6
go back to using your pc without issue.

If you having an issue installing a driver that worked before you formatted or wont install on a fresh build, sometimes this means hardware damage

Windows 7 is Windows, and Windows is the main OS on the market, so it is not an alternative OS. Anyway, the mods have already moved it to GS so let's forget about it. IMHO it's pointless to moan about that all the time.

@chev.. checking the bios is not pointless updating the bios resolves many on board problems like the ethernet etc. what is with the administrator?

Well, if Windows is having difficulties with automatically installing drivers, then you should first aim at Windows when troubleshooting. And you said yourself that once you manually installed the ethernet driver, your interrnet worked. So I guess you didn't install your drivers properly or whatever.

And the administrator account is a user account in Windows, giving you all privileges you can get (important when installing drivers); in contrast to a regular user account. If you have only one user account, then just don't worry about that. I only asked to verify whether you used such an account or a regular one.

Best thing you can do know, is just do as being advised by crazyeyesreaper.

Or if it is a X64, the driver isn't signed. Or your driver download is corrupt. Or you have a hardware issue that is causing corruption.


Is it overclocked?

 

[cdawall]

are you installing a 64bit driver or like an old XP one whats the driver for and did automatic updates already install one?
