What brand and model is it and what OS are you running?

If you know the brand and model of the card, then you could probably go to the manufacturer's website and download the drivers from there.

You need to download the drivers for your display adapter which is not the monitor. it is a card, or in my case, an on-board chip that controls the graphics.
Right click on My Computer
Choose Properties
Choose Device Manager
Click on the plus sign for Display Adapter and you will see what make and model yours is. You can then go to their web site and download the driver. I am guessing that if you are running Win 98SE or higher that you will have a version of the driver you need in Windows. It is always best to check the web to see if you have the latest version though.
Hope this helps you.
