Solve : Do I need a different driver, or one at all??

Answer»

Ok, so I’ve got a shuttle computer http://eu.shuttle.com/archive/en/ss51g_faq.htm v.2. I got it from a friend and I’ve been FIXING it for a while now. I’m down to the LAST steps of getting it up and running well!!!

So, one of the problems was that the secondary video card that was in it had a blown capacitor. Only, that was a video card that was included with the system bought from the manufacturer, and I’m pretty sure the motherboard drivers for it are for that secondary video card. So, it also has an integrated video card, and that’s what I’m using, but what do I use for a DRIVER now? Is it the same driver as the secondary video card, is it a different one that I need to find, does it need one at all?

OH yes, and obviously I re-installed windows which is why I need to re-install the motherboard drivers.

Anyone KNOW?
What Windows version?
What do you have listed in Device Manager, under Display Adapters?Right, I have Microsoft Windows XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack 2

Currently in device manager there is no display adapter category, and that's because i haven't installed the drivers for it yet, right? In "other devices" it says video controller (VGA Compatible)With most manuf. when a PC is sold with an add-on video card those drivers are on a seperate CD from the MBoard drivers.
Reason being during the course of a full production they may use 2 or 3 different add-on cards,
But they normally use the same MBoard so the drivers on your MBoard CD are for the onboard video.

Hope this helps.
