About this tag
The Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 is a legacy graphics card that users have attempted to run on early Windows 7 builds, including RC and pre-beta versions. Common issues include driver incompatibility, failure to enable dual monitor setups, and lack of Aero support. Users often report that the card works under Windows XP but not under Windows 7, even after trying Vista drivers or compatibility modes. The card may be detected as a Standard VGA adapter, and official Nvidia drivers may refuse to install. These threads reflect the challenges of using older hardware with newer operating systems, particularly regarding driver support and feature limitations.

    Windows 7 What drivers for Geforce 5200?

    Windows 7 Windows 7 Pre-Beta Taskbar

    Okay, I know this is irrelevent (partly because it's outdated), but I do care. The 'old' taskbar which comes with the pre-beta build 6801 doesn't work properly with Aero on my NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200. It just becomes a black bar during Aero mode. Strange, it's worked in the past. I am posting...
