    Laptop display

    I formatted my laptop and reinstalled windows 98, it is a pretty old time laptop but none of the default display drivers do much good, and they produce black bands across the screen when i load up word etc. Is there anyway to find out the necessary driver, or a decent default one that should work?

    thanks

    If you let us know the make and model of laptop I am sure we can track down a suitable driver.

    It is a time laptop, i can't see a model type on it, there are a lot of random numbers on the base but i'm not sure if any of them refer to the model

    Lets have them then - first rule of driver hunting, you can never have too much information!

    Here are the time video drivers

    It is quite likely to be the Neomagic driver based on what you have said so far.

    Neither can I....

    However if you can tell us what the specification is of your machine - processor, screen size, hard drive size, we can have a pretty good stab at narrowing it down some....

    Woohooo found it

    Was originally made by fic and rebadged.

    You want the link to vga driver - bottom right, or from the time computer drivers, the trident 8400 link.


    At time support click on whats inside your pc, then nb series, then the FIC NB2 link. It looks to be the same, except you have the slightly better spec.

    Time 2000 Laptop drivers

    I was lucky enough to score one of these beasts a couple of days ago - they must have been pretty bad-*** when they were released.

    Anyway, it came with a driver disk (covering Win 9x, NT and 2000), and the zipped up drivers only come to 13.5Mb so if anyone wants me to email it to them, just send me your email address.

    Cheers
