I'm needing a little help. I own a Compaq Presario C770US Notebook, and I'm trying to hook it up to my TV to watch movies, but my video controllers won't install. I've been to the Compaq website and installed the driver over and over again, but nothing works. Exclamation points are still beside Video Controller in Device Manager. I've googled this problem over and over again. When I go to Properties and Settings, The #2 icon doesn't even show up, it just has a picture of a monitor. Can someone help me fix this problem. Here are the specs to my computer.

Computer:
Operating System Microsoft Windows XP Professional
OS Service Pack Service Pack 3
DirectX 4.09.00.0904 (DirectX 9.0c)
Computer Name JOSH
User Name Administrator

Motherboard:
CPU Type Unknown, 1866 MHz (3.5 x 533)
Motherboard Name Hewlett-Packard Compaq Presario C700 Notebook PC
Motherboard Chipset Unknown
System Memory 2037 MB
BIOS Type Insyde (04/29/08)

Someone help me with this problem, please?

Just check in Control Panel -> Add / Remove Programs whether the Intel Chipset Video Drivers are installed and post back.
 
It's not showing up in Add/Remove Programs. I've tried installing this about 6 times, but it's not working. Also, how do I find out what chipset drivers go to my motherboard when my specs keep telling me 'Motherboard Chipset Unknown'? I'm sorry guys, I'm just not that good with this stuff. Please help.
 
OK. Here's the thing. When I bought this computer, it originally came with Windows Vista. But, I have recently reformatted to Windows XP. When you lookup the drivers from the Compaq site, they do have drivers for Windows Vista and Windows XP, but they don't have any drivers for video and graphics under Windows XP. That's only under Windows Vista. I've even tried installing the one under Windows Vista, but that doesn't work either. I've had this working before, but for some reason, I just can't get it working this time. I had to do a System Restore not too long ago, and it reset what I had done. What should I do?
