My video card fried so I borrowed one from a friend however he didn't have the driver for it. It's not aparent what kind card I have by looking at the card itself. Windows isn't able to find the driver automatically (or through windows update). I'm using some default vga driver which really cripples my video. Is there a way to determine what kind of card I have installed and hopefully what driver I need to download? Thanks.

If you know what kind of video card you've got, google it! I recommend the following website:
http://www.driverzone.com/video.htmlYou should be able to find the driver you're looking for there.
Hope this helps! :)

I don't know what kind of video card I have that's the problem. Is there some tool that will tell you what kind of card is installed?
at the first 2 to 3 seconds when you boot up on the beginning of the boot it should flash what kind of video card you have. But you have to read really fast. you might have to "shut down" not restart your puter and power back up several times to read the info.They flash really fast. demetrius

brian, Go to the link below and download Belarc Advisor and run it. It should show you which Video Card is installed along with all other hardware & software. It's Free. Tufenuf
If Belarc doesn't tell you, download 'Everest Free'. Do yourself a favor BACKUP!
Sorry, I do not check for private messages
If you don't know what kind of video card
it is, ask your friend. He/she should know
what kind of it is.If you don't want a Trojan barging in on you, put up a firewall!!!
The card should also have a tag on it that contains an FCCID number.
Search that number to find the make and model.Bryan
