At this point you are going to have to open the PC tower and look for the
exact model number of your video card. It should be printed on the video
card. Take precautions to prevent static electricity discharge which can
damage the components.

Or, you can look at the receipt for your PC to see if the model number of
the video card is listed on it.

I did exactly as the instructions stated. The problem I have is that
when
I push the settings tab in the display applet program the only button on
that page is an "Advance" button no "Change Display Type" button
available.
When I push the "Advance" button I get another applet that has 5 more
tabs:
General, Adapter, Monitor, Performance and Color Management. I click on
the
Adapter tab and the page shows that I have a Standard PCI Graphics Adapter
(VGA) and also has a "change" button. When I push the "change" button it
starts the " Update Device Driver Wizard". I follow through that and get
to
the page that shows me two choices, one that searches for a new driver and
one that will allow me to select the driver from a list. I choose the
select a driver from a list and I scroll to the manufacturer "S3" and in
the
models column it does not have my model, it has a list and in that list it
has the following models that are close to what you said I have: "S3
Trio32
PCI (732)", "S3 Trio 32/64 PCI (732/764)", "S3 Trio64UV+ (767)", "S3
Trio64V+ PCI (765)", "S3 Trio64V2-DX/GX (775/785)". The model you said I
have is a S3 Trio 3D video card. I'm at a stand still and I hope I
explained it a little better this time. I appreciate you sticking with me
through all this. Thanks again. Keith
