Unable to identify graphics card

[MackTheHunter]

Alright.

This old computer has an Intel D8456VFN/D845PEMY Motherboard. The graphics card is integrated. No other information can be found about it.

I can't find the correct display drivers for it at all. The computer is stuck in 4 bit resolution at 600x800... Help.

Read the manual. I sure hope you tried to go to Control Panel.

[MackTheHunter]

There is no manual.

Display settings in control panel can't identify the graphics card or monitor (Just says "Monitor on' for graphics card)

I just changed my monitor to 480x640 256 colors for fun. It's like I'm living in 1994!

Do you know the model number of your PC?

[LordCutlerBeckett]

Huh. Well, that's it for me.

Yes, but MDG (A little-known computer company in Canada) doesn't have a model search on their website.

Mine only goes down to 800x600 with 16 bit color :c

Intel 845g maybe?

Usually Vista/7 automatically finds and installs video drivers.

dxdiag

I know with Windows 98 and virtual machines, that there is a bug that it won't install default drivers for the video card without a patch.

It's not virtual, it's a real OS with a real, stuffty MDG computer

It's XP :c

dxdiag

Everything came up as ?????'s

Note: Tom (TomTheGeek) found the drivers for me and it's working fine, he sent the dl's to my phone while I was on the way to the dentist lol
