After you install an operating system, you must then install the drivers
for all your hardware. It sounds as though you didn't do that because you're missing the correct drivers for your video card. Never get drivers from Windows Update. Get them from: 1. The device mftr.'s website; OR 2. The motherboard mftr.'s website if hardware is onboard; OR 3. The OEM's website for your specific machine if you have an OEM computer (HP, Dell, Sony, etc.). Read the installation instructions on the website where you get the drivers. To find out what hardware is in your computer: 1. Read any documentation you got when you bought the computer. 2. If the computer is OEM, go to the OEM's website for your specific model machine and look at the specs (you'll be there to get the drivers anyway) 3. Download, install and run a free system inventory program like Belarc Advisor. The older Aida32 is good for this, too. http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html - Belarc Advisor http://www.aumha.org/free.htm - Aida32 (hosted on Jim Eshelman's site) Malke -- Elephant Boy Computers www.elephantboycomputers.com "Don't Panic!"

Given what I believe the age of that video card likely is - its driver is either included in Windows XP or it was never supported in WIndows XP by the original manufactuer. -- Shenan Stanley MS-MVP -- How To Ask Questions The Smart Way http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html |
