Video adapter drivers
      #173775 - Mon Mar 28 2005 07:33 PM

Hi,

Im having problems with a game . . it wont start and tells me to check my Video adapter drivers.

I did a google search and realised there are thousands of downloads.

So my question is how do i find out what Video adapter drivers i have and what to install.

Thanks if you can help

Download Everest Home Edition from here.
Run it. Double-click on Computer in the left-hand pane and click on Summary. In the right-hand pane look for the Display information.
Free and informative.
If you right-click on an empty area of your desktop and:
Click on Properties and select the Settings Tab,
Click on the Advanced button and select the Adaptor Tab,
Click on the Properties button and select the Drivers Tab,
this will also tell you the Driver version you have installed.
While it is said that 'The Meek Shall Inherit The Earth', nobody guaranteed what state it would be in when they got it!

Thank you RichieP and Noviciate,

Ive realised i already new the driver. Its NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440-se

i know it because i installed it no less than 4 weeks ago for another game.

If the driver is a good one ( i assume it is ) what else is wrong?

Thanks
.

Hi, If you right click on your desktop, Choose Properties>Settings, then click the button that describes your Graphics card e.g. GForce4 T1 6200 with AGP X8, then finally click the NVidia Information button, you will open the driver website and will be able to choose and download the latest drivers for your card. Hope this helps
