How do I reinstall my video drivers?

OK, so I know this may be a super basic question... but my resolution is all jacked up and can't be changed. Also, my color choices are just 2 color and 16 color. Someone told me to reinstall my video drivers. I have no idea how to do this.
Thanks for your help! I'm just installing Win ME, by the way.

Hi,
Windows ME? .. It installs the 16 color drivers quite often .. without asking most of the time.
Anyway, if you know what you are using for a video card, Right click on the desktop - select properties / Settings. If you can't change it there, try Advanced / Adapter / Change. Now you can search for a better driver or point to its location.

Hi there...
check out your system.ini and look for the card... delete the entry (a ; before the string will do it) then restart the computer an error-message comes up... and win will try to use another driver (16colors most of the time) now put in your screendriver-disk and re-install... it should work this way...
