no display adapter showing in device manager

[K. Halligan]

My graphics card no longer works and wehn I tyr to update
the drivers in device manager the display adapter icon is
not present. I do not also do not have a driver for CPU
to VIA AGP controller, are these related?

Did you check the chip set driver for the motherboard to
see if you have the correct drivers for the motherboard?
Try to install them.

You said (My graphics card no longer works ) if this is
correct how are you able to view device manager??

I suggest you change your adapter to default VGA this will
limit your colors to 16 (really sucks) and reinstall
your drivers for your proper card, if this fails, then
most likely your video card has failed and needs replacing.
although from your post it just sound like the drivers
have become corrupted, have you tried restoring your system
from a point where the video card worked???

Hi,

First download and install the latest hyperion drivers for your system
board.

Check the chipset in the system board before you download the drivers.

You can get the latest Hyperion drivers at the following web site:

Then, re-install your display drivers. Contact your PC manufacturer for more
information on getting the drivers for the system.

Best of luck
