Hi ibe1cent,
D/load and install the most recent video adapter drivers from either the
video card manufacturer's website or the motherboard manufacturer's website
if you have onboard/integrated video.
If you don't know the make/model of video adapter, d/load, install and run
Everest Home Edition (freeware):
http://www.lavalys.com/products/overview.php?pid=1&lang=en&pageid=1
When you first open Everest after installing, click on the Computer icon in
right-hand pane, then click on the Summary icon in right-hand pane. Scroll
(if necessary) to locate Display under the Field column in the right-hand
pane. It should display the make/model of your video adapter.
Regards,
