If you can't find a driver you might be able to plug in a new video card, complete 
with drivers.  You can get a pretty decent one cheap these days.

If your machine as an AGP 2x slot or better, places like newegg.com will sell you 
one for as little as $25.  I upgraded my video with a $55 PowerColor 9250 for $55.

If you don't have the AGP slot, you could probably use a PCI video card.  It's not 
the preferred way, but it might be better than your present video.
