Nvidia Quadro Fx Model And Driver Search I am not sure if I posted this already, as I am not used to this site yet. I have taken apart my PC Desktop, to find what kind of video card I am using. Turns out I am using an Nvidia Quadro FX. But, I do not know the model, so I can't find drivers for it online. Well, the video card has a fan to the right of the Nvidia logo, as well as a sticker above the logo, with some numbers on it. These are the numbers: 01 051206 I wrote them down as they appeared on the sticker. What are these, serial? Or are they the model of my video card? If not, how do I find the model? I need to know the model of the card, so I can download the drivers manually. I do not want my PC online. It has no virus protection, you see. But I CAN download the drivers on another PC and transfer. Please Help. Thanks. Also my desktop motherboard model is an Intel D945GTP, I do believe.

before installing latest drivers, uninstall the old one, seems to be a bug with nvidia card drivers

Although it may not be your video card thats the problem. when youre computers posts, it beeps once. If it is beeping more then once youll want to check with the board manufacturer to see what the code its giving means.
