Having some problems running World of Warcraft, I posted on a thread about my difficulty and gave them my dxdiag, and a Blizzard poster gave me a link to follow to update my video driver. I followed the link, downloaded it, and proceeded to install the new driver when, about 1/4 of the way through the installation, it said that it "failed to install a core component" and that, upon computer restart, it would revert back to the last driver that worked.
However, when I restarted, things were a little messed up. Icons were gigantic, so I fixed the resolution, but things still seem messed up - my ability to scroll down a window (online or offline) seems severely hampered - it's more like it quickly reloads the page than actual scrolling. I am wondering what I should do now to get things back to the way they ought to be. I am not entirely sure how to figure out what graphics card or driver I currently have (my friend built it for me while I was at school), but here is the info found in the link I was given (I don't have enough posts yet to actually post the link):
GeForce/ION Driver Release 256
Version: 258.96 WHQL
Release Date: 2010.07.19
Operating System: Windows XP
Language: English (U.S.)
File Size: 82.6 MB
Let me know how I might be able to obtain any other info that would help. Thanks a lot.
