Display Fault
I gave my old system to my daughter and reloaded Windows 98, now I am having
display issues. The only options I have are 16bit and 2 color (I do not have the origianl monitor drivers) I tried removing and reinstalling the generic driver but I still only get 16bit and 2 color. I also keep getting the message that the system has found new PCI adapter but can't find software (I didn't add anything new) Help!!! I don't have much more hait to pull out Dave |

The generic driver won't give you any more than that and most likely IMO
the PCI adapter it found is the video card. Take the cover off the case and visually inspect the adapter for names/numbers to identify the manufacturer/model. Once you know the which card it is, go to their site and download/install the latest drivers per their instructions. -- Brian A.
