77430 2002-09-07 20:53:00 Since I got my PC back from a BIOS fix I cant get more than 2 or 16 colours. ie Contol panel/ Display/ settings/ colours which to say the least is horrible let alone limiting.
Ive reformatted C from scratch reloaded w98 and still the same- which I needed to do anyway. I'm sure I have the right drivers. I have an athlon 1.4 mhz/ 256 mb ram, 2 sizable hard drives.
Under advanced/ adapter Standard pci graphics adapter is - vga.drv, *vdd.
Could the supplier have changed this in some way

You need to download the correct drivers from the makers website. If you have on-board video you need the drivers from the motherboard maker or the chipset maker, if its a video card, get them from the card makers site.

If you got your PC with full CD's of operating system etc, they should be on a disk or CD.

77432 2002-09-08 02:40:00 thanks for that.

Net says I need fcc Id No which is FCC ID = ICUVGA-GW806.
However,searching on that gives me nothing including at drivers sites?
I did see it on some fcc site which acknowledges its 'acceptance' by FCC? but couldnt download from there. Any ideas?

You may need to lift the lid on your pc to see exactly what type of card/chip you've got there. Their download (www.gainward.com) page shows what to look for.
