Posted March 24, 200618 yr My PC keeps restarting without warning. When it restarts I click on the send error report and I get a message saying that device error has occurred. Finally a message came saying that it is a video card driver. I don't know how to find out what video driver I have on my PC nor do I know how to look for it. I am pretty muh a dummy when it comes to computers. I am using WindowsXP. I read through my owner's manual and couldn't find any information on the video driver. The PC was built by Northgate Innovations which only sells monitors on their website. Please help, thanks.
March 25, 200618 yr You can start by visiting: http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html And download the belarc advisor. This should be able to tell you which video card or intergrated video your machine has. Should be listed under DISPLAY on the right hand column towards the bottom. Copy and paste the results, come back, and we will take it from there. . .
