Ben - Many thanks for excellent information! Am ploughing through the
website - haven't managed to download the 4 in 1 - but I will!
There is an excellent advice forum, too.
Thanks again

| According to the product specs for the 7919 at the HP web site:
|
| The motherboard chipset is the Via KM 133
| The graphics are provided by Integrated S3 ProSavage4 3D
|
| Via bought the remains of S3 a couple of years ago.
|
| First, go to the Via web site and download its latest 4-in-1
drivers. That
| takes care of the basic motherboard drivers. With Windows (and any
other
| operating system!), if the motherboard drivers are not installed or
not
| installed properly, you cannot depend on anything else working
correctly either.
|
| Next, see if the Via web site has drivers for the S3 ProSavage4 3D.
If so,
| download and install. If not, you'll need to look for them
elsewhere. As
| always in a computer industry acquisition, something can fall into a
crack. The
| S3 drivers may also be incorporated into Via's 4-in-1. I'm not
sure, because I
| do not know the age of the ProSavage4 nor the exact timeframe of the
S3 buyout
| done by Via.
|
| According to the URL that follows, ProSavage4 is a "new" Via
development, circa
| 2001:

|
| So you'll doubtless find drivers at the Via web site.
|
| My, how time flies. Not long ago, S3 was a major graphics chip
player.
