Guest Laughingstar~* Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 Re: Where can we find your answers on Yahoo to our posts? thank you very much. Yes, I turned down the hw accelerator a bit... nothing's happened recently. I haven't been sure how to obtain a video driver for the graphics card, but in Troubleshooting I clicked on the update options, and both responses were there were no needed updates. also, my cords were "arranged" for me under my pneumatic desk, which may be in part responsible for the problem. I'm having someone check things tomorrow. Thanks in re that to databaseben herein.

Guest Nightowl Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 Re: Where can we find your answers on Yahoo to our posts? Hello again Glad things are okay at the moment (fingers crossed they'll stay that way!) It's usually best to get updated drivers from the manufacturer. If you'd like, post the make and model of your graphics card, and I'll have a look around and post back a link to the latest driver for you.
