I have an old VGA Graphics card in the AGP slot and am trying to use it on a Win98 system but using the default Windows driver. I cannot change the colours and screen area, they are stuck on 16 colours and 640 x 480. I guess this is because the driver is not working for the card. When I start the computer it tells me there is no adaptor, and I guess this is because it does not recognise the display adaptor.

What can I try to get the pc to recognise the adaptor and change the display settings? Am I forced to buy a new card? I cannot identify any name on the present one, other than FC, which does not come up on a search.

The more I know about computers, the less I know. Sort of like flying....
