There should be plenty of display drivers on your windows disk. If you are using Microsoft Internet Explorer then you can visit the windows updte site to obtain the lastest drivers automatically for your hardeware. http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com Hope this helps |

I would try your WIN98 CD first though. Do you know how to update a driver in windows through My Computer etc? |

I have had this problem but normally I know where the driver is to sort it. If it is not on the Win98 CD then your best bet would be to either check the site i mentioned before (it will scan all your hardware and give you a list of any driver updates available to you) . Or if this fails then, as jand said, you will need to find the manufacturers site and get the latest driver from them. |

My computer crashed hardcore too, I just got back on after a couple days of no luck. My hard-drive was making weird noises and then locked up and crashed. Then it wouldn't boot up and wouldn't recognize the harddrive. After filddling around I finally ordered a new one today. I was messing around again trying all sorts of shit and inexpicably, it booted up! But now my USB doesn't seem to be working, my mouse isn't working. Is it a virus or some shit? I thought I was going to lose everything, but fortunately everything is still there on my HD. |

check the system-thigie in the control-settings. check both your screen and your screencard. if either one doesn't have a name, go to the site for the manufacturer for that part, and download a driver (yes, screens need drivers too). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Fixed my problem. Yeah, driver needed to be re-installed for some reason. Computers confound me. |
