XP Pro Monitor/Adaptor Problems
Im running XP pro and recently had some problems which necessitated to
attempt a repair. After I got back up I noticed that the monitor was set to default and the adapter was set to unavailable when I click properties it comes up Vga Save and Non Plug and Play and Unknown, Unknown. The driver is Vga Save Current Status (start, Stop) Started, Startup type System. I have never seen such before. I tried installing the real drivers ( Its a Radeon 9800 Pro) and it says cant install please install a standard VGA driver first. Well I cant. The control Panel, System Devices doesnt show a display adaptor and a scan doesnt find one. What can I do to fix this problem? Thank you |

Can you do it by way of Add/Remove Hardware in the Control Panel? Don't
make it scan, TELL it what you want to install. John justintime wrote: Im running XP pro and recently had some problems which necessitated to attempt a repair.

XP Pro Monitor/Adaptor Problems
I tried that and tried to install an adapter but the closest is a Rage
card, when I install any adapters I get a message that it is installed but may not work because the device cant start.
