Comment:
i have recently formatted my computer, and installed win 2k. my computer uses trio 3d/2x series, so i downloaded the corresponding driver for the video card. However, it won't let me install the driver. when i try to install the driver, it just says "unable to find the driver" and it won't let me. i know that it is the right driver since i used wins3id.exe utility which shows the type of video card i have. i have no idea why it won't let me install when it is the right driver. any suggestions would be helpful. thanks
