How do I update my S3 Graphics Prosavage DDR?
Hi everybody, I'm only just learning about this stuff. It seems I should update my Video driver, which I think is the "integrated" type? (Don't laugh.) In other words, it came on my samsung pc, which is 5 yrs old. (I haven't installed a separate Video Card.) Anyway, I get this idea about updating.
So using "dxdiag" I found I have this under Device:

I need an update? I would have just gone to S3's website or another website and downloaded something but it's not so simple to me. There are dozens of things to choose from and nothing that looks like what I have.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I may not know much, but am willing to learn and try things. Thanks.
