What do you mean by 'code 23' ? Do Start / Run / MSConfig and make sure
Normal Startup is selected. Choose Advanced and make sure VGA 640x480x16 is
NOT selected. Do Start / Settings / Control Panel / Display / Settings /
Advanced / Adapter and note the adapter description. If this is some type
of generic VGA driver, or if it doesn't exactly match the adapter installed
in your machine, then you need to find and install the video adapter drivers
specific to your particular hardware. These should be available at the video
adapter card manufacturer's www site, or if the video adapter is integrated
into the motherboard then it should be available at the motherboard
manufacturer's www site. You may have been provided with a CD as part of
your system deal - in that case the drivers should be on that CD. If you
have upgraded your video adapter since you bought the machine then the
upgrade should have included a CD that would have the drivers on it.
