iliketurtles Posted August 22, 2003 Author Report Posted August 22, 2003 Tried that dozens of times...came back in 16 bit.
MrRant Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 Uninstall the video card drivers and reinstall.
iliketurtles Posted August 22, 2003 Author Report Posted August 22, 2003 (edited) I've never done that before...is it just a program in Add/Remove Programs? Also, I checked DirectX and nothing is showing up as a problem with the video card. Also, I reinstalled Windows 98 SE and that allowed me to use my mouse, which it wasn't before. I THINK my video card is ATI mach64, but I'm not sure and I don't want to do anything I'm not sure of. Edited August 22, 2003 by HartFan86
MrRant Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 You can go to www.ati.com and download drivers for it.
iliketurtles Posted August 22, 2003 Author Report Posted August 22, 2003 So should I uninstall it, or update drivers?
MrRant Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 Clean uninstall and reinstall. Windows should detect the video card after you reboot. Then you install the drivers. There are instructions on the website I believe.
Guest The Old Me Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 I'd do as Rant said. That worked with my sound card a few months ago.
iliketurtles Posted August 22, 2003 Author Report Posted August 22, 2003 Alright, I uninstalled ATI & the RAGE card fine enough and it read it when I rebooted, but here's the thing. I don't have the disk of the ATI stuff on it. It was installed by someone else a while ago. It asks for driver's for PCI VGA Compatible Display Adapter, so I'm about to go check out ATI.com again.
MrRant Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 Well... yeah that would be a good idea. I assumed you already downloaded them after I posted the link.
iliketurtles Posted August 22, 2003 Author Report Posted August 22, 2003 The RAGE one I have is like III and it's not listed for Windows 98 ----> Graphic Driver. I owe you a beer after this one, lol.
iliketurtles Posted August 22, 2003 Author Report Posted August 22, 2003 All fixed...found the RAGE IIC one, and it's running very smooth now. Thanks a SHIT load.
