Windows 7 + Samsung R610 = True

By Fredrik Wall

YES!

I did fix one of my bigger problems

The problems:

1. Could not update the bios on my new laptop
   on Windows Vista 64-Bit and on Windows 7 64-Bit
2. When I installed Windows 7 on my new Samsung
   R610 laptop I got several problems.

   The biggest problem was that the standard VGA
   graphic driver was the only driver that worked.
   And the NVidia driver crashed my computer.

How-To and the solution:

1. I installed Windows Vista 32-Bit and did the bios
   update from the Samsung support page.
2. After the bios update I installed a fresh copy of
   Windows 7.

   Then downloaded and installed the newest driver on NVidias download page.
   Before any updates from Microsoft!

 

Now I got great resolutions and I can use my external screen.
Better than with Windows Vista!
After some extra job, but that’s okay

I had troubles with my Samsung Laptop and Windows 7 RC.
Now when Windows 7 got RTM and are on TechNet, It’s time
to see if this got more drivers for my Samsung R610.
