Default Help needed with finding video drivers

Hi, I got this info form aida32 and I`m still confused as the know what
driver I need, I`ve checked out the two sites and can`t work it out. The
comp isn`t mine I`m trying the help a friend, Am I right in thinking the
graphics card is built into the mobo? The problem is he upgraded from
win98se to xp and now when he plays any games he just gets a black screen,
some of them you can hear the sound. Sorry for the long post. Thanks for any
help or suggestions. Kim
