Hello,

I have installed windows 7 ultimate 32 Bits on my computer, it doesn't recognize my graphic cards : a HP Quadro FX 3000. (Yes I know it's an old AGP card but works good)

I have download the drivers for it on nvidia.Com, but the driver version recommanded for windows 7 is in fact a very old windows vista driver : forceware 96.85 (release date :October 17, 2006)

The result of this : No OpenGL Acceleration on CS4 suite...

As comparison the drivers for this card on windows xp is : Quadro Release 169.69 (Release Date: June 6, 2008)

Do you think if there's a chance, nvidia update the driver for Quadro FX 3000 on windows 7 ?

I doubt it but perhaps you'd be better asking Nvidia rather than requesting speculation from people that don't know?

You should get the best drivers you can for your card, Vista is likely the best you will find and should be compatible with Windows 7. However you can force openGL with Adobe's official but non-supported registry mod.
