Graphics hardware

[John]

Hello. I just installed Windows XP and now everytime I
open up a file that uses my graphics hardware, I get the
error "Could not initialise Graphics Hardware". What
should I do?

Hi, go to the video card manufacturers website and download their drivers,
the ones supplied with XP are only basic and won't run some games properly.
The two main manufactures are http://mirror.ati.com/support/driver.html &
http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp
But check yours first by right clicking on the 'my computer' icon then left
click properties and go to hardware, device manager and then, finally, click
on the plus next to display adaptor....
