| 322795 | 2005-02-08 22:55:00 | Recently I bought an 1100mhz Intel Celeron with an Asus Tusi-M motherboard. It came without a HDD or motherboard drivers. I've installed a 60gB seagate HDD and loaded up win98se. After visiting www.asus.com I downloaded the bios writer utility and the bios updates and proceeded to flash the bios - bringing it up to date. All went well. Next I've been loading up drivers from driver.com and from www.asus.com - but I've hit a snag.... I've got the audio driver, usb, lan and modem drivers installed OK - they each had a setup.exe file that loaded everything once unzipped - however, I can't get the display-adapter or graphics drivers to load. I tried to install several different ones but most don't have any setup.exe or install.exe files when unzipped. How do I load these display-adapter drivers onto the system? I'm stuck!! Is there a better way to do it - I mean - isn't there a way you can visit a "FIX-UP" website that looks at your PC and suggests driver downloads to update it - like microsoft does with it's updates? |

| 322796 | 2005-02-08 23:07:00 | You can just unzip them and then From the start menu select Start -> Settings -> Control Panel. Click on the System icon and then from the System Properties window select the Device Manager tab. Find your display adapter To install a driver manually use the following procedure: 1. From the device manager double click on the device 2. This would open a device properties window. 3. Click on the Driver tab. 4. Click Update Driver push button. 5. You now get two options. The first option provides an automatic search for the required driver. The second option allows you to specify the location of the driver. If you don't know the location of the driver choose the automatic search which would find the required driver from the manufacturer supplied CD or Floppy disk. Just specify the location at step 5 such as c:\display or wherever you unzipped them. |

This is a direct link to the video card drivers on the asus website: www.asus.com.tw It's 4.99MB |
