Recommended Posts

Loads of drivers don't work...

Video for Ati Radeon 9000 pro :

INstall using exe...Says i shoould use generic driver...Using control panel to update driver ...explorer crashes...

Audio for Realtek AC 97 :

INstall using exe,just the control panel installs...Install using control panel to update driver...Driver is installed and working i can see it but it still says NO SOUND in the Sound control panel applet...

B2C2 Sattelite card:

After instaling drivers using update driver longhorn refuses to start anymore (just hangs at login screen (CTRL+ALT+DEL thing))

Bluetooth dongle :

After installing it says that WIDCOMM licence does not cover usage with this OS

So how do i fix thses (VIdeo and audio are most important) ?

Most of your problems are caused by the fact that this is an alpha release. I know there is a newer build for Athlon 64. I am also experiancing most of the problems you are using build 4074, and since Microsoft plans to totally change the driver architecture, I see compatibility getting to a point where the old drivers wont work anymore.

Much like XP eh?

Yes you have to have an NTFS installation.

this is because the alpha release still contains the WinFS and it is an add-on to NTFS.

I had no problems installing drivers for my radeon 9600SE card. But I think you will find that older hardware is not as supported as in previous versions of Windows.

Probably because this is not public release and the recommended specs on it are high enough that older machines just wont be capable of installing it.

I have a 2GHz processor 1.3 GB of RAM and it still took an hour to install it!
