Missing Drivers

I have an HP Pavillion tx 1000 that I have recently replaced the HDD on. In doing so, I have changed the OS from Vista to XP Home x86. I'm having some issues getting some of the drivers for XP. The video for example, is and NVIDIA GeForce GO 6150, but when I try to install the XP drivers from the NVIDIA site it tells me that it cannot find the hardware and exits the setup wizard. Here's a list of the drivers I am missing:

Video Controller
PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0244&SUBSYS_30BF103C

PCI Device
PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_026C&SUBSYS_30BF103C

Other PCI Bridge Device
PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0269&SUBSYS_30BF103C

Coprocessor
PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0271&SUBSYS_30BF103C

SM Bus Controller
PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0264&SUBSYS_30BF103C

Because they're so similar I'm thinking a chipset driver might take care of it... Not too sure though. Anybody have any ideas?

 

Greetings, jools1976.

Try the chipset drivers first from here (make sure you reboot after installation), then try the video drivers again.

 

Caliban will get you going. I am not good at drivers.

This post has some information/tips that may be worth reading regarding getting full functionality under XP. (I checked the rapidshare links and they are all 3 functioning--so if you want/need a particular driver/software as a last resort you could download the author's megapack of drivers. Rapidshare does have a free download option but it is limited to one file per hour or so. Thus it would take over three hours including waiting in between to get the three files needed to complete the driver pack.)

 

Yup, chipset was the key. I downloaded it from here:

Once that was installed the drivers that were listed in the Device Manager changed, and they were pretty easy to find. But chipset was definately the solution. Now the only thing I can't get working is the touchsceen, not sure if XP will even support it or not.

 

Glad you're gittin' her done, jools, although I'm coming up with a "NVIDIA: Page Not Found" from your link - weird.

Looks like sach2's touchscreen link might be the way to go - certainly worth a shot.

 

Oh snap. Try this one...

Sorry about that.

 

Got it - thanks. As you can tell, my link was pretty outdated. rolleyes

 

Update. Here's the xp touchscreen drivers. They work perfectly:
