Okay, so I just got a video card from my friends new desktop. He just installed a new one, so I got the old one.

It is titled as a Radeon 7570. It came from an HP ENVY Desktop loaded with Windows 8. I am trying to install it on my Windows XP 32x Professional computer that already has an Intel G31 graphics chipset.

Can someone link me to the correct drivers and tell me what to do? I downloaded multiple AMD catalysts and nothing happens, the video card adaptor is just titled as VGA something something, and does not display any info in DXDiag.

Please help me, thank you.

Okay guys, listen.

I have the video card plugged in, I'm not stupid.

It is in my motherboard correctly, I'm not stupid.

But none of these drivers have worked. They install, or do whatever they do, and when I click finish, nothing happens at all. The autodetect just starts up and goes away. Bumping for more help.

Okay, so, whenever I try to install that Catalyst thing, and restart my computer. Something DOES happen, but nothing new.

After I do this, Windows displays it in "Other" on the device management, and is labeled as a VGA controller, and has no drivers and does nothing. DXDIAG shows nothing still, and Windows notifies me that the hardware wasn't installed properly.

Where do we go from here?



Don't...

Hmm, not sure what is going on there, you obviously are getting something on the attached screen. Might be worth seeing if there are any updated drivers for the Intel chipset on their website. Could be a small chance that HP have some peculiar drivers available from their website.

The 8 drivers won't work, the driver models change from Vista onwards. I'd be tempted to reseat it, check the BIOS is set to boot to the correct display (should be ok though as you are getting something).

Intel have a driver update thing on their website which might be worth a try, if the PCIe slot has never been used a chipset driver update might be available.
