Best driver/video card?

[russfraz]

I need a new video graphics driver/card-i have WIN 98, IE 6.What would be the best driver/card to install?

What do you do with the compueter? Are you a gamer? If not a gamer a cheap card like the nVidia MX4000 or Radeon 9200 is perfectly fine.

loaded driver didn't work

I've downloaded a different driver,that is compatible,but it hasn't seemed to helped-do i have to re-install it,or what?My pictures still look like cartoons.

 

[vegasgmc]

Do you need a video card or the driver? What are your system specs?

do i need graphics card/driver/tv tuner?

Windows98,IE 6.Pictures are grainy,off-color-i downloaded directx 9,but that didn't seem to help-should i re-install it(i was told that this would also fix my problems with clicking some links,or email links except yahoo).Hasn't fixed that problem either.I'm stumped.Thanks for the reply.

What graphics card do you have installed at the moment? Windows 98, IE6 doesn't tell use anything about the graphics card you have.

Graphics card

If u want to find the graphics card, Right click my computer, Click manage, Click the + sign next to system tools to make the list drop, click devics manager, then click display adaptors. IT should say thats its a graphics controller which is the same thing. Then give us the exact name of it.

" devices;trident cyberblade ail video adapter"

That is what you need.

You need to find Windows 9x drivers for the Trident Cyberblade, perhaps a specific model of cyberblade.

trident cyberbalde driver ?

Thanks so much-I hadn't the slightest idea of what driver that i might need,if it was a video card problem,or even motherboard.I'll try to find something comparable,probably an upgraded version as this seems to be a preetty old pc(built in '98)

Look in the files that you downloaded, there should be one that says setup, double left click on it.
