How to Turn off Automatic Driver Installation in Windows 7 Home Premium?? - ChoskarChulian - 08-07-2011

Hello there! Smile

Thing is, Windows always automatically installs this BAD, OLD Driver for my "Borrowed-Graphiccard" NVIDIA 7300 GS, which causes my system to crash/freeze constantly.

You´re supposed to be able to turn this automatic driver installation off by going *Computer - System Properties - Advanced System Properties - Hardware - Device Installation Manager"<--- And when there click "No, let me choose what to install" and below that tick "Never download Updates from Windows Update".

I did that. A zillion times, in 10 billion different ways. Won´t work.
Doesn´t work. Forget it.
Also, on other Windows 7 Versions, NOT Home Premium, you can somehow use the command "gpedit.msc" to disable this "automatic-driver-installation".
However, this command does NOT exist in Winows 7 Home Premium.

Do you know a solution to my Problem?
HELP would be greatly appreciated. Smile
