Hello, i have a 13 in intel core 2 macbook pro and i have windows 7 home premium installed on it but when i try to play any games it says i lack and devoted video ram or anything like that and when i look up what kind of video card i have its listed as a standard vga graphic adapter made my nvidia but i know i have an nvidia gforce 9400m chip :apple: please help
 
If it’s saying that you need dedicated graphics memory, you probably need to not plan on playing those games, or with those graphics settings at least. The GeForce 9400M is an integrated graphics solution, and does not have dedicated video ram. Thus, it’s not a driver issue, but a problem of the game wanting a more powerful graphics card.

Did you install the bootcamp drivers?
Which involves on the windows 7 side.
Insert the OS X install disc and install bootcamp

Since at first glance you may have the generic drivers from windows 7 since you didn't install your drivers
