No Video Driver

[Scott Majorino]

I have a Dell Inspiron 5100 laptop that came preinstalled
with Windows XP home. I formatted the drive and installed
a fresh copy of Windows 2000 server and SP4. I am unable
get the system to install/recognize a video driver. I have
tried a bunch of drivers that I downloaded but with no
luck. The driver that was working with XP was an ATI
Mobility Radeon 7500. It seems the hardware from Dell is
set for XP only. Is there any way around this problem?

Any help is appreciated!

Did you get the new video drivers from Dell ??, or from
ATI ??

I tried both Dell and ATI... The error I am getting is

"INF error video driver not found".

You usually get that error when you are trying to install
the wrong driver. Check with Dell and make sure that
that's the correct video card.
