SiS video card driver help needed
I am frustrated, no doubt mainly because I am not very computer illiterate at 68 years old lady, my brain just won't take me as far as I need it to go.
I like to play a lot of downlaod games from big fish website. I play download games from the Big Fish Site. A couple times now when I attempt the download & installation, I get "Access Violation" error. When I went to trouble shooting about this it gave me this inormation............... [COLOR="Red"]Check your video card To determine whether your computer's current video card supports Open GL and the latest version of DirectX, you'll need to know the date it was created. Even if you have a brand new computer, your video card could have been made a few years ago and may have outdated drivers. Please follow the steps below: 1. Create a dxdiag report: Windows XP users: a) Click the Start button and select Run. b) Type dxdiag into the text box and click OK. 2. Once the Direct X Diagnostic Tool (dxdiag) is open, click Save All Information and save this report to your desktop.[/COLOR] I did this and this was the result................(sorry if more info here than needed) [COLOR="red"][COLOR="red"][COLOR="Red"]System Information ------------------ Time of this report: 9/12/2008, 23:20:37 Machine name: COMPUTER Operating System: Windows XP Home Edition (5.1, Build 2600) Service Pack 2 (2600.xpsp_sp2_gdr.070227-2254) Language: English (Regional Setting: English) System Manufacturer: MICRO-STAR INTERNATIONAL CO., LTD System Model: AWRDACPI BIOS: Award Modular BIOS v6.00PG Processor: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 1.60GHz Memory: 448MB RAM Page File: 389MB used, 668MB available Windows Dir: C:\WINDOWS DirectX Version: DirectX 9.0c (4.09.0000.0904) DX Setup Parameters: Not found DxDiag Version: 5.03.2600.2180 32bit Unicode ------------ DxDiag Notes ------------ DirectX Files Tab: No problems found.

Well I went to SIS website (which is the video card manufacturer?) but this is where I get lost. I don't have a clue what to do from here. There are so many downloads there for video card driver updates, I'm at a loss. I did go and update direct X but I think I already had the updated version. Can anybody help me????? I have probably included way too much info but if more is needed just let me know. Laymans terms please, need step by step procedure as I am not computer literate. There seems to be so many drivers to download and I just don't know which is the right one? Thank you so much to anyone with any suggestions.

Please update all your drivers online here: http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloadindex (you should see a "Click Here" box, for the support page to take you directly to your updated drivers.
