Omega Driver Install Problem

PolloJack · Jul 27, 2004, 06:24 AM

I installed the deal and such, now it says to right click your my computer icon and then select properties and then hardware tab. I have no hardware tab. Where did I go wrong?

I tried looking for a FAQ on the site but they sent me to these forums sorry if this is a mispost its like 12:30 over here after playn planet side. Yea, Ao1 is talking about it and said it works pretty nicely so I figured I would take a hit.

Um.. info on comp if needed. Xp, Nvidia 5200 (over riding the integegrated), 512 ram like that would affect it, um sound driver all I could find was AC'97 whatever the hell that is, and AMD Athlon 2600+. If that helps find the problem faster I wont have waisted my time.

P.S. that registration deal took for ever. Name thank the lord I didn't have to change passcode to like 4 - 6 in length, then an e-mail.

The Omega drivers are only for the video card, they shouldn't affect the hardware tab in the system properties...

Thats an actuall part of installation,

How to install the nvidia Omega drivers (WinXP):

1- Close all programs
2- Right Click "My Computer" in your desktop and select "properties" OR press "start" and do the above
3- Go to the "Hardware" TAB, then click on "Device Manager"
4- Expand the "display adapters" icon

Now I have seen device manager before somewhere, not sure where. Can someone tell me how to get to it another way?
