Hi

It looks like your adapter is a 3D Accelerator S3 Savage4.

Anyhow you probably need a heap of other drivers, like your chipset driver etc. I think though the last link has the 4in1 driver that will solve your problems.

Asus support

Asus support for bios

Asus support general motherboard drivers

Asus support on 4in1 drivers and patches.

Hi again

Meant to mention that the 4in1 should include the chipset driver. The chipset driver down the page further in the last link of response #1 is for intel based boards.

I would try version 4.32 first, but if it doesn't work - try 4.28

4in1 driver 4.32
