How can I find out what video card my computer has (this one was built in-store and I don't know about the parts used)? My bro and I accidentally deleted the driver and don't have it on a CD (or don't know where it is), so I need to download it.

right-click desktop > Properties > Settings >Advanced > Adapter

And remember, this time, to put your drivers into a CD, so you won't be able to delete it anymore.
PS: All your drivers should be kept on a CD...:classic2:

Hmmmm.......you could try going into System Information and clicking on Components > Display, but I'm afraid it'll say the same thing. Otherwise idk, you could call the place you got the computer from.

Crack open the case, there should be some markins on the card.

Start>Run>msinfo32

Look carefully. On my computer, it's in Components>Display

would it be possible for me to have deleted some small file that makes the driver work - like could I have the driver installed but not have some file it needs to be able to run?
