What;s the version of driver that windows is saying?

 

[bobmac]

Your problem is you need to re-align the dilithium crystals in the warp core

 

[chrisd]

yeah, foot through... I'd copy what the device manager says into google and check for the latest version of driver. Like has been mentioned it may not be up to it but for an XP machine I'd be surprised it couldn't handle it, it may just be low on memory so throws a double 6

Thanks for your help. i reckon memory could be the problem. It worked well until the up date

very old I'm afraid so maybe not up to it, heres a link for the driver download
http://download.cnet.com/SiS-Mirage-Graphics/3000-2108_4-82728.html

edit* tried it myself and it said 404 so maybe its onboard graphics which really wont be up to the job.
Time for an upgrade Chris I'm afraid
