    Red face Gateway2000 SOLO 9100 VIDEO DRIVER NEEDED!

    Ok I had a virus in my laptop, I reformatted my hard drive and reloaded Windows 98 on my computer. Now everything is working properly except I cannot change my display to read 256 color mode. It keeps telling me my driver adapter is not working with the computer or hardware. I downloaded the driver from Gateways site. Does anyone know how to get past this problem? I am trying to load my Optonline software on this computer and it won't allow me too due to the display only reading 16 colors and not 256.. Please EMAIL me back with any helpful info. you have. Thank you so much.

    which chassis revision do you have? the 9100 had two different video systems, the chassis revision later than 6.0 had a trident, with the drivers here:

    the earlier models used this driver:

    here is how to tell which revision it is:
