Default Why Why Why?? Internet Explorer Problem

Anthony,
Start in Safe Mode, look in Device Manager there, and see how many different items
are listed under the Display Adapter category in Safe Mode.

That's odd....the driver you downloaded states it is for the display

adapter
reported by AIDA32. Not sure why it says it is not.

I lost track - is this an onboard graphics, or on a PCI/AGP slot? - if the
former, some were pretty tetchy about drivers, as the OEMs tweaked the
chipsets rather badly (presumably to reduce costs).

I agree....but I dunno if it is onboard or a vid card in a slot. I don't think the
OP ever stated. Let's ask.....

Sorry for the delay.....you seem to definitely have ATI 3D Rage Pro (atir3), then.
;-) The drivers you tried to download may not be an exact match due to tweaking
by Gateway, as I think Noel suggested. We got off on a bit of a tangent here with
the video drivers. You mentioned earlier that you wondered if a bad RAM stick could
be at fault. It seems a rather long shot, but if you want to test your RAM,
download one of these diagnostic diskette makers, then use it to make a bootable
diskette for testing your RAM (download them all if you like):
