take note on the dx parmeters and the dwm being disabled, as welll  and i qoute "the nvidia Audio Device sound WDM" chip is still functional as indicated by my device manager

 

however anything below that is clearly not functional such as the gpu, if you switch the switch to speed mode it gets stuck at the windows boot flag screen but makes the log in sound with the flag still up,

 

if i switch it now, the computer will be stuck at boot screen but physically allows you to log in with a password but wont show the password screen.

 

 

This GPU got to be fried, its a common NVIDIA Go Geforce 7400 problem as illustrated by NVIDIA them selves as well for sony, they have blocked support for this driver from what i here,

 

 

other then that the computer is hands down useless without a graphics card.

 

 

what better way to fix it is to upgrade, id rather chuck the whole chip out the window, as well they also state that this problem has been going on for those who have updated to windows 7 from vista which means the driver doesn't support 7 but does vista.

That doesn't look like a Speccy report to me! and why are you posting in this new topic you have opened?

 

Its up to you, of course, but I think you might get more responses if you follow the suggestions in your previous topic and posted your Speccy URL there. ( the link to your topic was provided in my previous response)
