MDCx, Thanks for the help, rather as I thought. Just for the record the machine isn't a laptop but a DIY lash up. I look forward to hearing more.

Thanks sfor, but 81.98_forceware_win_9x_english.exe when opened says that I have no Nvidia graphics and puts its legs in the air.

I find that I cannot successfully load the drivers from NV8269.exe under Windows98SE. My monitor is a Dell 1504FP running in analogue mode. I would like the resolution to be 1024x768 and display 256 colours. At present I can only get 640x480 and 16 colours. I have an AMD642x processor on an ASUS M2N-CM DVI motherboard which has Nvidia Geforce 7025 / nForce 630a (MCP68s) chipset and integrated Nvidia Geforce 7 Series Shader model 3.0 DirectX9 graphics processor. Trying to load the unzipped NV8269.exe after selecting Geforce 7025 / nForce 630a I can get to a stage where Windows copies the files and says that it has finished loadingthe drivers and in “Properties” “Settings” I can move the resolution pointer 1024x768 and select 256 colours. I then hit “apply” and reboot. This results in “Windows protection error” message and it will then only start in Safe mode and the display is back to 640x480 resolution + 16 colours and not adjustable. “Settings” “Control Panel” “System” “Display” says that the drivers are not installed properly. Is the problem that the graphics is integrated in the motherboard chipset and not on a PCI card or am I missing out some step in the installation procedure? Help would be much appreciated.
