Display driver for Windows NT

July 22, 2007

Hi.

I tried to make a fresh installation of Windows NT. Unfortunately, after

doing so, I realized that the display was really bad, in only 16 colors and

640x480 resolution.

I have no idea how to improve this, and I have no CDs that were originally

packaged with the computer because it is a very old PC.

Can someone help me with this, please?

Wrong newsgroup (this is for those running Windows Millennium) however

your problem is due to your not having installed the appropriate video

driver for your graphics card/chip so are running at default VGA settings.

Given the age of your system it may be difficult to find the necessary

drivers but start by visiting the web site of the graphics card

manufacturer and looking for and downloading an NT compatible driver for

your graphics card.
