doug Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 From experience, have you re-installed your graphics - it could be you are just using the Windows default driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luca000 Posted September 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 Sorry if I sound stupid, but how do I re-install my graphics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doug Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 Gotta go out now but if you post the details of your equipment then someone will advise. e.g. Computer make/Display/mother board - all the details you can find. Did you get any installation disks? Hope you get sorted soon. Back in later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gagaman Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 Try this. Its not a solution its just to find out whether you got your drivers installedClick:Start - runType:devmgmt.mscClick okA screen will pop up: "Device manager"See if there are yellow questionmarks (especially in display adapters)If so, you need to install a driver for your graphic card. Normally there should be a cdrom with the drivers on it when you bought your pc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarecrow Man Posted September 17, 2007 Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 If it is a Dell, you should have a model number, such as 'Dimension 8100' or similar. If you know what model your computer is, you can download all the drivers you need from http://support.dell.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
