Help me! Video card problems. - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Okay...the other day, I was going through my add/remove programs looking for spyware, and I think I deleted my video card driver. Now I'm stuck in 16 color, 640x480 display. If this was 1991, I would be in buisness.

I just got this computer a few months ago, and I don't know too much about it. It's a duron, if that helps. I would just go to the video card manufacturer, but it's an integrated video card, so I'm kind of stuck on that. Does anyone know what I need to do?

If the computer is a brand-name one (HP, Dell, etc), you can go to their website and download the graphics drivers for that computer.

If it's generic/homebuilt, and the video card is integrated, then you should check out the motherboard manufacturer's site. If you're not sure the motherboard manufacturer/motherboard model number, pop open the case and their should be a name/model number written on it somewhere. With that info you should be able to get the appropriate drivers.

How's the Titty Board look? hehe.
