    Don't worry. It was just first step, and Win 2K often fail to find correct driver, or maybe that tech guy lost it somewhere.
    Now, you have to download, and install "Everest", from here:http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/file/fid,23043-order,1-page,1-c,alldownloads/description.html
    After installing, run it.
    In left pane click "+" sign next to Computer, then click on "Summary".
    In right pane, you'll see two columns: "Field", and "Value". Some entries in "Value" column will be displayed in black, some in blue. Blue entries will provide more information, when clicked on them.
    I'd like you to post "Values" for following lines:

    -under Motherboard:
     * CPU Type
     * Motherboard Name
     * Motherboard Chipset

    -under Display:
     *Video Adapter
     *3D Accelerator (may be not listed)

    Please, also tell me which of those 5 "Values" are displayed in BLUE.
    We'll go from here.

          Great info...Thank you :)
          You'll find your driver here: http://www.softwarepatch.com/utilities/s3proddr.html
          Download above file (S3G_ProSavageDDR_winxp_v139433.exe), and double click on it. It'll install your video driver in known to Windows location.
          When it's done,
          Go back to Device Manager.
          Right click on VGA Controller (under Other Devices), click Properties, click Driver tab, click on Update Driver button.
          Upgrade Wizard will appear, click Next.
          Make sure there is a checkmark next to "Search for suitable driver for my device". Click Next.
          On next screen, make sure there is NO checkmark in any of displayed options, and click Next.
          Windows will search for your driver, and it should find it. If it does, accept it, and Windows will install it.
          That should do it.
          Let me know.

            If you are happy  ;D I'm happy  ;D

            BTW...
            I've noticed, that under "Other Devices", you have three other entries:
            ....ETHERNET CONTROLLER
            ....MULTIMEDIA AUDIO CONTROLLER
            ....USB CONTROLLER
            Do they also have exclamation/question marks.
            Is your sound OK, for instance?

              Eventually those entries should be fixed, too. I think the best way would be, if you open Everest one more time.
              You'll see "Report" button at the top.
              Click on it. Report Wizard will open.
              Click Next.
              Put checkmark next to "All pages".
              Click Next.
              Put checkmark next to "HTML".
              Click Next.
              It'll generate report about your computer (it may take couple of minutes).
              When it's done, click on "Save to File". Save it to some known location, and email it to me (I'll PM you with my email address).
              It's almost time to bed here, so I'll take a look at it tomorrow.
