Points: 0.96 Donate | | | PLEASE HELP ME! MMkay heres what happened a week ago my computer was all messed up I would log on to my account and then it would shut off on me(not completely but it would show a blue screen and then i would have to shut it off) So we did a full reboot. Like a bunch of things got messed up though, for example, the we have no audio device even though we have speakers connected but not detected. Alright so today i installed the Sims 2. But when i try to launch it it says that my computer doesnt have the right video card(it used to be able to run the sims 2) So I went to the device manager and went to display adapters it has a picture of a computer with an exclamation mark. I double clicked it and it said it wasnt installed. So, I tried to reinstall it and it says that it isn't detected! Can anyone tell me what is wrong with my computer? DOes any one know how to fix the sound or video card? |

some of those cd's will contain 'drivers' for those devices.
once installing windows, you should always install the device drivers.

OOOh problem with that, since we moved after we got the computer, we dont know where they are now. Also, the video card is an nVIDIA Geforce4 MX Graphics if that helps |
