Graphic card gone #133

Closed amithiel closed 12 years ago

amithiel commented 12 years ago

Ok, i was with windows 7 all working, and decided to try out ubuntu + ironhide. Last time i tried, it was the old bumblebee. So, i installed ubuntu 11.10 in a new partition so i can do all the tests and still dual boot. Follow the instructions to install ironhide, but was stoped by that "busID" error. Then i searched the google for answers...but none came up. Anyway, got sick of it and reboot. I was shocked...when i entered windows 7, the Nvida card was missing completely (not even appears on device manager), and the intel card was going insane. Had to reinstall intel HD graphics, but i couldn't reinstall nvidia because it says my computer doesn't have any nvidia card.

Ok, first thought " ironhide must have disabled the nvidia card for good ". reboot again, and spent several hours searching for a way to get iron hide working just to turn on the god damn card. I had to quit. So i got this idea... "i'm gonna format my entire hd, and start windows 7 from the scratch". nice idea indeed, thing is...i'm now on desktop, starting the drivers instalation and for my surprise...nvidia is still gone.

Now please guys, please anyone can help me? i need my graphic card back! jesus, this was the last time on my entire life i touched linux

solved.... installed ubuntu again, and this time installed "bumbleebee" instead of ironhide. turned nvidia ON, reboot, format HD again and installed windows 7 again. now it detects nvidia. uff....bye bye ubuntu
