    Windows vista & intel 845 GVSR display driver problem

    Advert.
    I have installed windows vista and it seems that it is not supporting my board's inbuilt graphic card.
    It is not giving more than 640x480 resolution and no more than 16bit colors.

    I searched and did not find any driver for it on internet for Vista.

    Any help ?

    Seems manufacturer ie. intel itself has not made any driver for the same to work for windows Vista:
    http://www.intel.com/support/graphic.../cs-009072.htm
    Here when you will try to download drivers then you will find that Vista is not in list at all.

    Best solution is you add an extra graphic card and make sure it is compatible with windows vista before buying.

    you can solve this problem by this way ... it works for me ....

    1) First install Winrar ....
    2) Copy your graphics driver setup file in a folder eg. C:\Users\Abhishek\Desktop\driver
    3) Try to open this file from winrar....
    a) Open Winrar
    b) Type the address in the address bar... eg. C:\Users\Abhishek\Desktop\driver
    c) double click the setup file (say name is iata_enu.exe)
    d) the setup fle will open and we can see files of that set file
    4) select all file and copy them on another folder eg. C:\Users\Abhishek\Desktop\driver_extracted
    5) Now go to Device Manager (for this right Click Computer click on property -> click on device Manager)
    6) Right click on Display adapters
    7) "Update Driver" Window opens Click on "Browse My Computer for driver Software"
    8) Now Browse to the folder where we extracted the setup files eg. C:\Users\Abhishek\Desktop\driver_extracted
    9) Click Next

    Fix for older motherboards like Intel 845GVSR etc.,

    HERE IS THE SOLUTION FOR FIXING DISPLAY PROBLEMS....
    (This solution works for any Intel Motherboard)

    No need to donwload or install any drivers.
    Vista has everything built in.

    Only thing is it needs atleast 128 Mb of Video Memory, but for older motherboards like Inter 845 by default the Video Memory is configured to 64 Mb which is resulting in your problem.

    So what you have to do is...

    SOLUTION:

    Restart your computer>Press DEL Key
    and
    Go to BIOS Settings>Advanced>Video Configuration

    1. Change "AGP Aperture Size" from 64 Mb to "128 Mb or Higher"
    2. Leave "Primary Video Adapter" as "Integrated"
    3. Change "Frame Buffer Size" from 1 Mb to "8 Mb"

    and then press F10(i.e., Save changes and continue).

    Sometimes, for the first time you may see screen not aligned properly, in that case just restart once more and Vista will automatically adjust the alignment for you.

    Also, you can change the resolution to your desired one manually as follows...

    1. Click "Start Button"
    2. Right click on "Computer"
    3. Select "Properties" option from the context menu.
    4. Scroll down and find "Disply Settings" option and click it.
    5. Adjust Resolution Size and Mode.

    NOW, ENJOY USING VISTA.....
