Greetings all, hows everything doing ?
I have a little issue with my VGA, happened after formatting, and I dunno what my friend did before to have the issue fixed, but he's not here to do it again.
I have what's supposed to be an NVidia GeForce 2, 64 MB.
I'm running Windows XP Pro SP2..
After formatting, and installing/or at least letting windows do the first time detection and all, I realised the VGA Device wasn't isntalled properly, whether I check it through DXDiag, or through device manager/properties, it always says its only 16 MB.
Here's a screenshot of what DxDiag says:
Now I dunno why, but if you noticed it says its GeForce 2 ( i contacted nvidia staff for the issue and all, and followed what they said but it didn't fix the issue by installing recent drivers, unless i didnt install properly/or it conflicted with windows/previous drivers, so i wonder if its possible to clear the history/files/old stuff), so even though it says the correct name, but the Chip Type, and main Driver are S3, I dunno why or how to get rid of them and make it use GeForce drivers, if that's even the issue.
Anyone got any idea of how to fix this issue? ^_^
Thanks in advance!
And stop laughing It's not like I have enough money to buy a new thing yet! haha..
