Hi, Can someone please advise me on the following problem on my Grandsons PC a Dell Dimension 3000 and monitor E173Fb. After numerous crashes ect missing files I reformatted and reinstalled XP from the restore disk. Now the screen resolution cannot be adjusted above 640x480 16bits,and going through to the Monitor tab it tells me that the default monitor is fitted. The properties tag is greyed out so I cannot check further, going through the trouble shooting program keeps leading me back to thr greyed out properties tag. In the device manager the Video Controller is in yellow with no driver allocated for the VGA adapter. I have gone through all of the supplied driver software ect. supplied with the PC with no positive results. Any idea the make ect of the VGA adapter as supplied and how to resolve this problem. Thank you for reading this any suggestions will be most welcome. Sid.
