My computer is an hp Pavilion dv9715nr series Entertainment Laptop with an AMD Processer and it used to have Vista and it worked perfectly
Look for an updated video driver...

It says that my moniter is a "Generic Non-PnP Monitor". Is that the right driver?
Not the monitor...the video card.
But if it is saying 'Generic' then it most likely doesn't have a driver for it and probably not the video card either...and since it is a laptop, until W7 is actually released, you may not have driver support (and maybe never, because laptops have a much faster obsolescence cycle than desktops...)

I personally found that some vista Drivers work on windows 7.

Well, its usually fine if your monitor is generic. I bet you need video card drivers.

If its the Nvidia Driver it's already installed.

Is there any way with a x86 version of windows 7 to create a custom resolution? Everythings too big on my moniter.

I already did a complete advanced install of windows 7 on my hp dv9715nr laptop. All my old stuff is in a Windows.old folder. How can I get all my drivers back? Some I can't Find online.

I'm not sure if this will work, but if you go to Device Manager and right-click on the device that you want the drivers for, right-click the Driver Tab and choose Update Driver and then for the source to search, choose Complete Hard Drive, it may find it.
