Ok well i have gotten some great help here for my PC. But my grandmas has a little problem that you may be able to fix for me :)

When i go to Properties and then the color settings it doesnt even have the setting for the normal 32-bit. Its only 256 and 16 colors. Its just very odd that it doesnt even have the option.
Anyway, i downloaded the same graphics driver from a 3rd party site and installed it, still no luck.
If anyone has any ideas at all that would give me the option to raise the graphics level on this computer i would be so happy :tazz:
Any help is appriciated.

Currently i have tried installing 2 of the same driver from different 3rd party sites.
This current driver its using that has the problem is the default. I just tried installing others to see if that would fix it, and the answer is no.

Note: This driver Did work in the past. So it can handle 32-bit. Just something happend and it doesnt allow that option

Just finished switching PCs and downloading it. I only brought my CPU so both PCs are using the same moniter, keyboard, and mouse :tazz:
Anyway, here we are. Hope this helps to get the problem fixed.
I know you all wont let me down, been a huge help so far :)

Download the graphics card driver from HERE. Extract the files to a folder on your computer and then run the SETUP.EXE file located in the folder you extracted the files to.

After your computer is asked to reboot, you should be able to go into display properties and change the settings.

It's only a 1MB video card, that might be all it can handle.

Then how did it work before? It worked for a few years then about 3 months ago it quit out of no where.

Also, if you dont know of a way to fix this, will any other better drivers work? ones that can handle it? even though this one should be able.

Run the program found at this link and post back with the chipset it identifies your Trident card as.

Umm that program doesnt seem to do anything really. I press enter and it says the program needs to be closed.
When i run it before i press enter it says Unknown Chipset and Unknown Memory Size.

then it's not detecting your video card which means the video card is damaged in some way. :tazz: That file is taken directly from the Trident support website which is the manufacturer of the video card on your computer and is used to identify the chip number of the trident card installed on your computer.

Nothing more I can think of to do, maybe someone else can chime in with other words of wisdom.

I'd go to a computer store and see if they have any cheap vid cards lying around. I know at my store we have vid cards for $8 USD. Maybe there is a store like that around where you live?
