I'm not sure I know what the graphics adaptor is. Is the Trident listed below? As I said I'm new to computers so I'm learning as I go. I downloaded a system scan thingy and what I think is the relevant information is below:
CPU TYPE CYRIX 6x86 MX/MII 150 MHZ
MOBO PCCHIPS M585LMR (HSIN TECH)
CHIPSET VIA VT8501 APOLLO MVP4
NORTH BRIDGE VIA VT8501 APOLLO MVP4
SOUTH BRIDGE TRIAL VERSION
SYST MEM TRIAL VERSION
BIOS TYPE AWARD MODULAR (06/23/99) 2A5LHH0CC-00
VIDEO ADPTOR STANDARD PCI GRAPHICS ADAPTOR (VGA)
3D ACCELERATOR TRIDENT BLADE3D i7
MONITOR PLUG+PLAY
And as nothing listed here is described as a graphics adaptor does that mean I don't have one?
Thanks
