FIXEDisplay settings, help I can't reset on 98SE

I keep my display settings on High Color 16 bit and 800x600. When I turned on the computer today it's set at 16 colors and 640x480. I've tried to reset it, restart and it's back to the setting I don't want.

This is an OLD HP 6535, can someone please help. Thank you

Went to Intel.com after finding out had Intel 810 chipset and downloaded update and it's fixed. Thank you.

Open it up and look at the chipset. Search Google or Yahoo.

CoConut..

I'm sorry, I'm not that great at tech stuff. What do you mean? Open what up and what's a chipset and what am I looking up on Google?

See if this works.

download the one "nVidia driver update".

For the above download it's for OS Windows XP and for Compaq 6535BE, I have Windows 98SE and HP Pavillion 6535.. Can I still download?

 

[ShadowFalls]

check your chipset... that one is for a Compaq Presario, you have a HP Pavilion, they are not the same, so find out what your chipset is, and report back to us

I went to HP.com and my model's spec show the chipset to be Intel 810. Not sure what a chipset is or what it does, but that's the info. Thanks
