RE Video mode

[Guest]

Can you help my computer broke an i had it fixed and now i can play some games.
If i try it says video mode initialisation error, please contact your video
card vendor to obtain latest video drivers.

I'm not sure where i should be looking or what it is.

Thankyou

Have you downloaded the most recent driver from the company that makes
your graphics card (i.e. nvidia, ati, etc.)? Try installing the latest
driver first, this works 90% of the time.

You should be able to find this information in Device Manager. Right
Click on My Computer > Properties. Click the Hardware tab. Click the
Device Manager button. In the listing expand "Display Adapters" and
you will see your graphics card appear. It should give you the vendor
and model of your graphics card. From there you can Google the vendor
to get to their site. Then download the appropriate driver and install
it.
