when I tried to play games on my Windows 7 partition, they just crash without telling me anything, or they say I have no graphics card. I have installed directX (I think),
but nothing is working, please help.

It's hard for anyone to assist you if you don't provide information that can help us to help you.

Year and model Mac? Version of OS X? Which games are crashing in Windows 7? Give us an example of one or two.

Does anyone know where I could download the Nvidia 9400M drivers for windows 7 64 bit?, that should fix it. Fixed, I downloaded the driver from Geforce.com, games running fine in Windows now :), lol but I got an overheat shutdown, gonna have to download a Windows fan control program.

Here you go: LINK Just be careful as this particular fan control program for Windows is still in beta, however, it should work. Let us know.

Anyway, take a breather from playing and your machine won't overheat. ;D
