>Snowbunny,
Download Belarc Advisor and scan your system. You will be provided with
all the information you need for your system. Once you discover the make and
model of your graphics card you can go to the manufacturer's website for the
download of any new drivers you may need.
To determine which driver you are currently using open Control Panel,
Device Manager and look for the "Display adapters" listing. Open the Display
adapter and right click on your graphics card entry and select "Properties".
In the Properties window click on the Driver tab and you can see the driver
release date and the driver version.
Don't just click on the "Update Driver" button. If you do this
Microsoft may install one of their generic drivers. Instead, go to the
manufacturer's website and download the new driver from there.
