Did I goof...?

[kjonnnnn]

I have a Compaq Presario 350 mhz, with a 17" CTX monitor. As we all do, I decided to reformat my drive and reinstall everything. The computer was slowly down and hanging alot. I've loaded and unloaded many programs over the years so I figured I'd start fresh.

My problem is now the only screen resolution I can get is 640x480. The WIN98 that came with the system I think was the first version. When I reformated I installed WIN98 Second Edition. In the old version, I could pick the adaptor CTX - 1765GM from the menu. WIN98SE doesnt have that brand listed.... what can I do? I even reformated and used the version on the Restore disk that came with the computer. .... but nothing. [sig][/sig]

You need to Get newer Video Drivers (your Monitor resolution isnt always determined by your monitor drivers, but your video drivers instead) [sig]<p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.com>kb244@kb244.com</a><br><a href=

I agree with Karl, you need to go to the Compaq website and download the video drivers....or at least determine which video adapter you have and go to the vendor's site and get them...they will probably have newer drivers there.
