nVidia GeForce G 103M ussually used in notebook for the VGA adapter. Recently I had problem when install it in Windows 7 for my laptop, HP Compaq Presario CQ40-419TX. nVidia has provide the driver in their website [download here], but the driver couldn’t be installed in Windows 7. Windows only want to use default Windows VGA driver instead from nVidia. After doing some experiment, I got the solution.
Download the driver, run the file, 186.03_notebook_win7_32bit_international_whql.exe. If you click it, it will extract firstly to the drive, usually in C:\NVIDIA. Don’t continue the installation, it won’t work since it will only install the HD Audio driver, not the VGA driver. We only need the extracted files.

How To:

1. Open Device Manager -> Display Adapters -> right click on Standard VGA Adapter -> Update Driver Software…
2. Browse my computer for driver software -> Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
3. Click on Have Disk… button.
4. Browse in C:\NVIDIA\DisplayDriver\186.03\International\Displ ay\nvaa.inf
5. Select G 103M. OK.
Now you can experience the aero / 3D flip effect ^^

And for the audio driver, I only use from Windows default, since the driver from HP (for Vista) didn’t work.

One of the interesting feature about CMS is it can be installed fast enough, just a few steps – including Joomla! But the difficult one is – how to upload the installation package to the hosting server? Well, there some ways to do it. You can use fantastico feature in your host server. But if there isn’t? You can upload the archieve file to the server and then decompress it via FTP or HTTP. But if the Internet connection too slow or the FTP is blocked (just like in my campus) or the file manager of the server doesn’t have decompress feature? Well there’s a tool – thanks to the developer – called CMSDownloader. You only have to upload 2 small file and create a folder to do it. OK, I’ll explain it.
