I found with the computer I am working with I had only  "16 colours and 2 colours" 
available and the "System Properties" only showed one "Display Adaptor" " the "Standard 
PCI Graphics Adaptor [VGA]".

Secondly the program pages were too large for the monitor screen [Yes just a few 
= EG, "Adobe Reader 6.01 = Preferences"]. 
Unable to pull up the bottom of their pages so to click on "OK" /"Cancel" Keys and 
they have no "Minimise" available on their/these pages and found you cannot "Drag" 
them smaller from the page corners!

I have found I have overcome the above problems by using the below which may be of 
some assistance to all!!


[No.1] 
I would suggest you use the "Aida32" Free Program will give you a report  showing 
you what you have on board. The Aida32 report showed  I had two Graphics  = one as 
 "Standard PCI Graphics Adaptor"  and the other one  listed as "Intel Graphics" [Video] 
[Certainly the Intel  one could be of another Graphic Chip Manufacturer].

[No.2] 
If you find you have a Intel Chip you can identify the Intel Chip by going into the 
Intel home Web page and use the Intel "Chip ID"  program which will identify the 
required Graphics Program you require =  from this File ID you do a search within 
the Intel Site for the Program= When you find the correct Update Program, I suggest 
you  first download/print out the "Text" help file which will assist you with the 
installation  = then  next download the  Program [Yes I used another PC to download 
the update  and then burnt it to a CD] 

[No.3]
Went and installed same from the CD into the required Computer

By using the above I now have overcome the Graphics and program Page problems!!

Looks like somehow the Intel Programming was corrupted or been deleted from the computer!!

Hope the above may be of assistance to all!!
