    installing video card
    « on: August 12, 2010, 05:58:18 PM »
    I have a dell dimension 2300 with 1 gb ram and 1.8 ghz processor, I recently installed vista 32 bit os on it and needed a new video card as my standard vga card was not fully functional with vista and only getting 16 bit graphics. I bought a radeon x1300 card that has a dms59 plug. It came with a dvi-dms59 adaptor and i bought a vga-dvi adaptor seperately. so i got a vga monitor plugged into a vga-dvi adaptor to a dvi-dms59 adaptor plugged into the card. It didn't come with a cd or drivers. I figured the drivers should convert the graphics to my vga monitor. when I plugged it all in it didn't display anything, I need drivers and install instuctions,
    Thanks,
