Video graphics card after wiping dv6000 clean and starting over with windows 7

i recently had a virus on my hp pavilion dv6000 notebook and it ate pretty much everything. the person who worked on my computer just started it over new with windows 7. this notebook was originally windows vista. i have tried to install the sims 3 which i have just bought brand new and it keeps saying that the video graphics card is not supported. i went to the update i found on hp.com but there isn't a choice in the systems options for windows 7 on this notebook model. what do i do now?

seems like sims 3 does not support your hardware w/c is your graphics card. updating drivers wont do much
but still if you want to update your graphics driver try going to hp.com and place in the search box your laptops product number and the hit enter, look for software and driver downloads link and you will see therer all the applicable updates for your hardware..

    You'd have to ask Intuit. They might give you a cross-license to download and install the Mac version.

  • How do I install OS X Lion on my MacBook Pro after wiping it clean, and I don't have the original installation disk I bought?

    I'm selling my MacBook Pro (2009) which has Lion installed. After I wipe the computer clean, I assume the system will go back to its factory settings that it came with. I'll need to reinstall Lion, but I don't have the original disk. How do I proceed to reinstall it?

    Did the Macbook come with Lion preinstalled or did you upgrade to it?
    You need to sell it with the original OS installed, so if that was not Lion, you need to get the install disks by calling Apple and asking for replacement disks (they'll need your serial number).
    FWIW, Lion did not come with an install disk - it is download only. If Lion was preinstalled, then post back for instructions on how to do that.

  • How do I delete a network and start over with no wired computers??

    I've been trying forever to delete my parents network...it has a WEP I can't remember, and I just want to start from scratch.  I've tried reseting the router...I've even called a Linksys tech, and even she was baffled.  I have no wired computers...Can anyone help???

    The only thing you can't do is upgrade the firmware.
    That being said ... I have to assume you are using Windows XP and windows is managing the wireless network connections.
    If any of these assumptions are false, my advice may not be as helpful.
    Step 1. Delete all networks from the Preferred Networks list.
    - open the wireless network connections window (double-click on icon in task bar)
    - click on Advanced tab (bottom left)
    - select each network that is shown and delete/remove it (can't remember what the button is called)
    Step 2. Reset the router.
    - unplugging the router does not accomplish anything here
    - locate the reset button ... press AND hold for at least 5 seconds
    - once you release the button, various lights on the front panel will flash as the router boots
    - when you have a steady green for power, look to see if you have a green light for WLAN
    - if the wireless is turned OFF by default (no green light for WLAN) you will have to find a way connect wired for at least a few minutes to turn it on (take it to a friends, bring the friend to it ... whatever works)
    Step 3. Setup the router for secure wireless.
    - if the WLAN is lit after resetting, you should see a notification on the computer saying "one or more wireless networks are in range"
    - click on that notification and find an unsecured network called linksys (if there is more then one, pick the one with the highest signal strength)
    - once you connect to that, open Internet Explorer and in the address bar type 192.168.1.1
    - the user name is left blank and the password is admin
    - change the password (under the Administration tab)
    - under the Wireless tab change the SSID name
    - under the Wireless Security tab choose WPA-shared key (better the WEP) and a phrase
    - once you apply the changes you will lose your connection
    - go back into the wireless network connections window and you should now see a secured network with the name you picked
    - try to connect to it, a dialog will appear asking for encryption type (WPA-shared key) and phrase
    - once you have successfully connected windows will automatically set up that network as default and connect to it whenever it is in range.
    Let me know if any of this is ?!?

  • Video Graphics Card and the iMac

    Can the video graphics card you have in the iMac be replaced with another graphics card?
    Or is it hardwired in? Sorta like a wysiwyg?

    Darren, thx for the list. I didn't think think the graphics card could be changed out, but I think it was worth asking.
    Besides that, I think the Radeon 9600 card is a good enough card anyway

  • Can I make a bootable DVD from the Mavericks download. I would like to wipe my iMac and start over.

    Can I make a bootable DVD from the app store download of Mavericks. I wish to wipe my iMac clean and start over
    thanks in anticipation

    Well you can make a bootable dvd this way:
    After downloading the Install OS X Mavericks.app file from the Mac App Store, run these 12 commands in Terminal to create a Mavericks.iso file and then burn it to a dual layer DVD with Disk Utility. You may then boot up from it by holding the option key down and then install mavericks. This will not install a recovery partition. To do that, uncompress and run the script file https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/13872235/Musings/Recovery%20Partition%20Crea tor%203.7.zip
    hdiutil attach /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app/Contents/SharedSupport/InstallESD.dmg -noverify -nobrowse -mountpoint /Volumes/install_app
    hdiutil convert /Volumes/install_app/BaseSystem.dmg -format UDSP -o /tmp/Mavericks
    hdiutil resize -size 8g /tmp/Mavericks.sparseimage
    hdiutil attach /tmp/Mavericks.sparseimage -noverify -nobrowse -mountpoint /Volumes/install_build
    rm /Volumes/install_build/System/Installation/Packages
    cp -rp /Volumes/install_app/Packages /Volumes/install_build/System/Installation/
    hdiutil detach /Volumes/install_app
    hdiutil detach /Volumes/install_build
    hdiutil resize -size `hdiutil resize -limits /tmp/Mavericks.sparseimage | tail -n 1 | awk '{ print $1 }'`b /tmp/Mavericks.sparseimage
    hdiutil convert /tmp/Mavericks.sparseimage -format UDTO -o /tmp/Mavericks
    rm /tmp/Mavericks.sparseimage
    mv /tmp/Mavericks.cdr ~/Desktop/Mavericks.iso

  • Clearing out my hard drive and starting over

    I'd like to basically wipe my macbook clean and start over from scratch. There was a user on it who is no longer using it, and his logins are taking up a lot of space. Any tips on how to do this?

    Put in your install disk and boot from it. Then do an erase and install.

  • I have two Apple ID's and one is used for my iPhone, but I want to start using a different one. Will my library still retain the apps I bought or should I start over with a whole new iTunes library?

    ^^ that's the question... Want to delete the current and start over with the one I've already created, but want to keep all my songs and apps. Is it possible?

    You can have apps and music from multiple IDs on your computer or your phone, but you will need the password for each one to install updates or to reload the content. You cannot merge the content from one ID into another, however.
