Windows 7 Can't Find GPU

[Twijn]

I am building a friend a PC to simply start PC gaming. It is not very powerful at all (specs on the bottom of the thread) however I cannot get the video card to be detected! It shows it as a Standard VGA Graphics Adapter. I then downloaded GPU-Z and it says that it's the same thing, Standard VGA Graphics Adapter, however when I click "lookup" it brings me to this site: http://www.techpowerup.com/gpudb/b2228/msi-gt-610-low-profile.html

It may or may not also be helpful to note that the resolution is at max 1600x1200. I have a 1920x1080 monitor.

Please help!

My specs:
OS: Windows 7 Professional (note: the hard drive came from an old pc that I got from a garage sale)
CPU: AMD FX-4300
GPU: MSI GT 610

Download the driver from Nvidias website then install it.

Did you format the drive and re-install windows? If not thats most likely your issue. Windows ties itself to the hardware.

Did you try to install the Nvidia GeForce drivers?

Did you clean install windows ?
