Hi,

I am a technical novice, however I have managed to bodge together this PC from 2 broken PC's. However, the graphics adapter does not appear to be working. I am using windows 98m an I think i have an ATI rage 2 pro graphics card, although don't quote me on that!!

Is there any way I can check if I am using the correct drivers, and check which hardware I have?

Everything else seems to be working ok(ish), I really don't like win 98 however can't afford to upgrade.

Any help greatly appreciated!!

Many thanks

James
