Just wondering - is it an AGP graphics card? If so then you need to have that driver in before the card can be detected correctly (its in the hardware display, under system devices and called Via...CPU to AGP controller).


If you then go to the start menu, choose RUN and enter WINMSD. If you could copy the system summary then it would give a few clues. Also looking at COMPONENTS->DISPLAY should give a few more bits of info.
hey promised the earth! Then delivered mud.
Technically it did meet the spec.

Hi Gav, welcome aboard.
Have you tried the previous suggestions in this thread ?
Does it show the display adaptor in device manager ?
Maybe Daz will call back and let us know what fixed his soon, assuming he has got it sorted out  ???
