Screen Resolution Help

k, what is the model of your card?

example: Geforce FX 5500

i got nothing from your above posts...

 

how do I find out what model i have?

 

you could also try system restoring back to when it worked correctly

 

grrr, do you have the box to the card, or look for a label on the card, geez..

 

It was a refurbished computer so I don't know if we had a card that came with it...sorry for causing u all this trouble

 

open the computer and look at the gfx card. there should be a label on it telling you all you need to know

 

Did you get a disk with GFX drivers with your comp? if so, run those...

Also go to Control Panel>System>Hardware Devices>Graphics Device and make sure it says this device is working correctly...

 

No i didn't get a disk with gfx drivers with the comp and i'm using xp, couldn't find graphic devices

display adapter: NVIDIA RIVA TNT2 Model 64

it seems to be working fine...there is no yellow exclamation point near it

 

go here: http://members.driverguide.com/driver/deta...?driverid=85791

you can login (i think its still up) to driverguide with:
user: drivers
pass: all

 

I downloaded the file and then ran it...near completion it gave me this error

An error occurred while launching the setup. (0x80040707)

 

did you close the setup all the way? ctrl+alt+del it and see if its still running in background...

 

Yes I did and after I installed the display adapted it asked to restart and so I did and my screen is still the same as before...nothing has changed
