Check for and download the latest drivers for your card, it's an outside
chance but it can't hurt to try.

What is the video card ?
Is the video built into the motherboard ? Or is a separate
video card being used ? Make and model ?

What card do you have? How much do you want to spend on a
new one?

Many computers now have a built in video card on their motherboard, which
isn't the latest and greatest, but is serviceable for many people. Most of
those computers will let you add either a PCI or AGP video card (look up to
see which one you need). Even a modestly priced ($35-50) card will
outperform the onboard video.

it works. http://www.download.com/3001-2086_4-10395724.html?idl=n
