VMM32 folder empty. Can't change monitor settings.
Hello,
I recently had to reinstall windows 98 on an older machine. After doing so, my monitor was set to 16 Colors and the lowest possible screen resolution. Upon some investigation, I noticed that the VMM32 folder is empty in the windows folder. I updated the drivers for the monitor and the card. Are these two observations linked? Are my monitor problems a product of the empty VMM32 folder? |

The VMM32 folder should be empty - don't worry about it
Reboot to Safe Mode Open Device Manager Remove ALL Display Adapters Remove ALL Monitors Reboot to Normal Mode - Windows will reinstall the required drivers - hopefully curing your problem. -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2006, Windows) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.crashfixpc.com http://tinyurl.com/6oztj Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's wrote in message oups.com...
