I know that this is a silly question, but without pulling my computer apart, how do I know what kind of video card I have? I need to download some new drivers, but I don't know what to download.

Help!

Here's how to do it in XP (which I assume
you've got):

Go to Start:Settings:Control Panel, and
double-click the Display icon. Click the
Settings tab, and then the Advanced
button. Finally, click the Adapter tab
and that displays the model and chip
info.
