How to find out what driver I need

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.video (More info?)

Hi,

as I only need it for a short time, I bought an older video card. After
installing, my XP Prof found it, but not the driver. The CD that came
along with it, tries to install a different language version, so I
stopped it. Anyway the files are from 1997. I'd think I should find a
suitable driver in the internet, but I can't find out the name of the
card. All information I found on card or CD was "FI 3-V-0 9747", but no
reference found in google. Any advices what to do now?

Thanks,

Ina
