Update: Install Matrox G450 and Other “Unsupported” Video Cards in Windows 7
So it came to pass that I had to do another G450 install on a Windows 7 machine, and when I went to Matrox’s web site, I still did not see drivers listed specifically for Windows 7. I did do some digging however, and found that this non-WHQL driver package works perfectly. It was listed as supporting “Windows Server 2003 x64, Windows XP x64, Windows Vista x64, Windows Server 2008 x64″. If it supports Server Win2k8 R2, it should also support Windows 7.
As luck would have it, the install went smoothly and I have a pair of the cards working in a brand new Core i5 machine as I type this.
Good luck!

I have Windows 7 64 bit and already have a Quadro FX550 in my system. I found one of these cards in an old system and have been trying to add it to the system. (Dual Xeon 3ghz) I do CAD stuff and having 2 extra monitors for other apps would be sweet.
Used all the installs and suggestions mentioned…still get error 43 (Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43))
These were great cards back in the day and would really love to use it…any suggestions?
