can someone please help me.........
My old hard drive fried, so I was forced to get a new one. I installed 98se on here and everything is fine accept the resolution on the screen wont get larger then 640 x 480 and only 16 colors.

Can someone please coach me on how to fix this.
you need to install your video driver in order to get higher resolution.
what is the make and model of your video card ?
if you have onboard video what is the make and model of your motheboard ?
and what windows are you running?

the above qustions will help us find the correct driver for you .
I think this is what you talkin about.

standard PCI graphics adapter (VGA)

Field Value
Motherboard Name MSI MS-6368 (3 PCI, 2 DIMM, Audio, Video)

Field Value
Motherboard Chipset VIA VT8601A Apollo PLE133

and im am running windows 98se

Thanks for the help.

IT WORKS!!!!! I appreciate that so much bruh!!!!! You're the greatest next to my moms bruh for real.

Oh wait I have a question I figured it would have fixed its self when I got this done, but my sound still aint workin. Can you helpme with that too, please.

All I can really say is that in my device manager under other devices with the yellow ! mark. It says PCI multimedia device. Im guessin thas why the audio aint workin. when I go to the multimedia section in the control panel, the audio section is dim, as in I cant click on anything.
no problem go back to the msi link above and download and install the via ac97 sound drivers.

as long as your using the onboard sound that driver should work.
