No. You have to go to the manufacturer of the video card's web site unless you have an on board video card which would mean going to your motherboard manufacturer's web site. Right click on My Computer/Properties/hardware/device manager and see what it says there about your video card and report back.

lack of colours after install of windows me
to be honest i'm not sure what i'm looking for i'm a relative novice to this
game. i;ve changed my adapter to super vga and that has solved my screen size now at 800 x 600. just the colours to go, under my hardware properties says original configoration. I have other heading of device manager but it hay lists of things and not sure what i should be looking at!
