Video Driver Propblems anfter Reformatting

Alright, I just reformatted my computer for the second time ever. And i know from my first time, that i have to reinstall all the drives for my sound card and video card. I got everything done for my sound card, but about a month ago, i got my motherboard and video card repplaced, and im not sure wut they are now. Anywayz. I cant find the right divers for my video card. Iv tried nVIDIA, S3, VIA...and a couple others...and i dunno wut to try anymore. Can anyone help me!?

(^^;?(No one can help you.)

It depends upon your new video card. What is written on your card? What is the condition in device manager? At least name on the chip is needed.

Sry for lack of details...Umm, the condition on the drivers is.. its under "Other" and it sais VGA Compatble. umm...the video card name, i think is like Microsoft Compatible. But im really not sure...can anyone tell me how to fnd out wut type of video card u have..or the chipsets. im kinda new at this.

(~~; ( I will be kind enough to tell you.)

Open that Pandora Box and take out Video Card CAREfully.

Then write down all the letter on it straight away here as precise as you can.

Alright. I opedn it up ad i only found one chip that was remouvable. and i dunno if its right but heres wut it said on it.

Kingston
V79357
0420PO1
D3208DI1R-6

i dunno if that was the vdeo card, and if it wasnt, then i dunno wut wuz, because i didnt see anyhting other remouvable things on the motherboard. on the motherboard, it had a black peice of plastic that had this on it,

VIA
VT8235
0345CE TAIWAN

i hope thats roght info

(~~;(No! It can't help. Kingston is memory maker.)

You said, "i got my motherboard and video card "

Have you looked at the Video Card?

If you bought the mobo only, write down all the silk printed items.

Don't you have any manuals attached?

Alright, i went to the compusmart that i had my thing done today. And looking in their records, they didnt touch any video cards, but gave me a new motherboard. They said that i probably dont have the right chipsets on my motherboard. And they said something about a built in video card. does that help?

I was Looking around on VIAs website for the chipsets to download, and i found this http://www.via.com.tw/en/southbridge/vt8235.jsp

thas the exact thing i have on my motherboard. But i dont see anything to download around...am i on the rigt track at least?

(^^;(I overlooked your next section.)

Yes, you're close to it, somewhere around. Can you specify likely chip-name on your mobo?

Hmm, i tried downloading and installing those, but whenever i try to install anything, it sais setup cannot complete the installation. check progress log in your windows directory for more details

(^^;?(Couldn't you specify the correct driver?)

Before install make resolution to 640*480.

If setup doesn't work. Try Update driver from device manager.

God, iv tried everything, Nothing works. Is there anyhting else i can try?

(^^;??(Weird? Even if it is wrong drivers, install itself is possible.)

How did you do it? In details.

Have a look at progress.log and put here.

This is the only one there,

(^^;???(The board is not for beginners. It seems to use special chipset.)
