Windows 98 display problems
Thank you for all your input. I know this is something less complicated so I do
appreciate your help. Still trying to get the issue cleared up. Now...where can
I find the manufacturers download site?
Also, when trying to install my HP everything went fine until I received a msg. due
to display issues the installation was aborted.

Help!!! After setting up my new work station my display settings got messed up.
I've tried everything I know to reset them even in safe mode unfortunately to no
avail. I can't even install my printer info.
