yes we do have the video cd but everytime we try to install it is comes up with.....
setup was unable to complete installation.try to set up your display adapter with a standard vga driver before running setup.
hope this helps
thanx |

have you changed monitors since you first got the computer? i don't know for sure but i think the monitor may be the reason the installation won't complete. |

Go into the device manager and remove the video card / drivers from the system. On restart it should find your monitor and install the VGA drivers, may have to insert OS CD. Then install the cards drivers from the installation CD. Good Luck

I've found (sometimes) if you pop in the video driver cd and choose "install driver" or if you let windows do it automatically, that it does not load the driver correctly for whatever reason. In this case you need to click "cancel" when windows detects the card at start up and load the drivers manually. |

Can you boot into safe mode? If you tap F8 during start-up you will get a boot option list. On my XP machine I have an option to boot using Standard VGA. If you have this option choose it and then try loading the drivers. |
