I click on solve PC issues (the flag) and it says Address a problem with NVIDIA graphics driver. I click it and it says

This solution could not be downloaded

Most likely causes:

Your computer was unable to download the solution at this time. Check to make sure your computer is connected to the Internet, and then try to download the solution again later.

I am connected to the internet, and windows update works, web browsing works etc. Why isn't it downloading the solution?

    Does anyone know where to go to get the solutions that are flagged in the "Action Center"?

      My Action centre tells me that it has solutions to a couple of issues that are plaguing my System 7 installation but each time I open it and click on "Solution" I get the message:

     "Your computer was unable to download the solution at this time. Check to make sure your computer is connected to the Internet, and then try to download the solution again later."

      And yes, I am connected to the internet at the time.

    "I click on solve PC issues (the flag) and it says Address a problem with NVIDIA graphics driver. I click it and it says

    "I am connected to the internet, and windows update works, web browsing works etc. Why isn't it downloading the solution?"

       I am having the exact same problem.... Since upgrading to system 7(64 bit) from Vista 64, my previously stable PC crashes or freezes at irregular intervals. PC is Asus CG5270 and graphics card is Nvidia GT220. Latest drivers via Microsoft Update are 8.17.11.9621.

       The little flag tells me that someone has the solution, but it is infuriating that I cannot get to that answer! DominicP's answer to download latest drivers is not the solution as I ALREADY have the latest drivers! In fact I have tried rolling back through all the 190 series drivers and they all cause crashes. Only the 180 series drivers give stability, but they run Windows in a narrowed display on my Envision flat screen. (2" black vertical stripes on either side of the display)

    For those of you how have a standard "desktop" / "tower" PC,

    http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index5.aspx?lang=en-us

    For those who have laptops, first check with the manufacturer.  If they do not have any Windows 7 drivers, consult with

    www.guru3d.com

    and look at the web forums for more help.
