You need to get the latest drivers for your graphics chip/card. You do not
mention what make/model computer you have, but you need to go to their
webpage, click on support, and go to downloads for your exact make and
model. Download the latest graphics drivers.

Hi Ron

Thanks for the web site.

However I am a little uncertain as to what to do.

The S3 Prosavage files appear to apply to Modems - mine is a display adapter.
