Hello, I have recently purchased a new video graphics card for my Gateway desktop, but unfortunately I am unable to use it because of my Multimedia controller. I know this because under my Device Manager it says it is not functioning (Multimedia Controller) and needs drivers. (see picture below). I had recently wiped my Harddrive and I never installed the drivers for that device alone. I have been searching for these drivers for about an hour. I have found the drivers page for my computer model, but not sure what to download from the list of drivers available (link below) and if it is even there. Help would really be appreciated, thanks.

I don't think it's you new Graphic Card because Graphic Card's are sometimes Plug and Play, after inserting it to the PCI Slot, Windows will detect it and install Generic Driver.
Mostly that Multimedia Controller is a Sound Device, because Graphic Cards usually are VGA with (!). But seeing that you don't have Display Adapters which your Graphic Card should be seen, it must be that you will be needing to download its driver on the manufacturer's site, either NVIDIA or ATI. Look for its Model Number and search on google.
But if you want easy access and latest drivers, I recommend you use Driver Finder, it will scan your PC's hardware devices, look for drivers compatible with it and ready for download.
Hope it helps you with your problem.

Amazon has some good Gaming Desktops, some of them are great and you can get at a much better price than most the other stores, they are also much more reliable and secure. Here's a Alienware Dell Computer from Amazon that is Amazing. It will run any game on it just fine. Check it out by clicking the link:
