Edward Posted August 16, 2005 Posted August 16, 2005 I have a PII with win 98 installed and it wont run in a graphics mode higher than 640x480 16 bit. I have tried different video cards that are capable of running at high graphics modes but they wont go into those modes when installed in this computer. What can I do? I'm not sure if it is software or hardware problem. I'm going to install XP and see if I can use the better modes but till then any ideas why I'm having these problems?
Pangloss Posted August 16, 2005 Posted August 16, 2005 When you install XP, be sure and reformat the hard drive. Don't try to perform an upgrade. It may leave the old video drivers intact, which may well be causing the problem.
