Admin Ray I have a PNY nvidia Quadro.....Drivers

Admin... Ray.... I have a PNY nvidia Quadro 4 700XGL. I can not find Win 7 drivers for it and I don't know about linux yet. Have you ran into that problem? It's a nice looking video card even has a fan on the IC. I hate to through it away.

Well I hate to have to be the bearer of bad news: but I dont see any drivers for Windows 7 either and Linux doesnt apparently support this card-on the nvidia site it saids this is an old unsupported card. You could fire up PhoenixOS Lucid, install it. Do sudo apt-get update then sudo aptitude full-upgrade, then run restricted manager allow the nvidia drivers to install then cross your fingers and reboot.

Let me know how you make out.

Thanks Ray,... I was afraid you'd say that.
I'll try the Linux install later.

This is why I stopped using Nvidia my 500gl laptop stopped being supported so I was out of luck. I could do vesa only in a (at the time) high end laptop.

John.... What Brand of video card do you use?

Right now I am using a mix of ATI and Intel.
