Title: Help with display adapter
Post by: marleynme on August 29, 2008, 04:19:24 PM
Hi everyone I am new to computerhope.com and I know my way around a computer fairly well, but I need some help if anybody's willing!  :)
I have been having some trouble playing certin games after I install them, saying the display driver is not working properly, or that I do not have the right video card installed.
I have never had this problem before, because I have played the same games on this computer a while back. I just recently installed them again.
I went to my device manager and under the display adapter tab there is an error when I click on the display adapter (Intel (R) 82945G Express Chipset Family) it says:

This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12)

If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system.

I think this is why my games are not working. I have reinstalled the driver, checked for updates, but it still doesnt work. Hopefuly someone can help me!


THANKS ;D

Download new video driver from HERE (http://downloadcenter.intel.com/filter_results.aspx?strTypes=all&ProductID=2102&OSFullName=Windows+Vista*+Home+Basic%2C+32-bit+version&lang=eng&strOSs=152&submit=Go!).
Uninstall current driver, and install new driver.
