for some reason when i go to load up certain programs, my screen blacks out
then goes onto the simplest colour scheme on the computer (i think it only
has 16 colours or something like that) and a pop-up comes up saying something
along these lines: {the display driver has stopped working properly because
SiSGRV.dll isn't responding please reboot to restore your computer}

if anyone knows about this or has had it and fixed it can you help me?
thanks

p.s i think there is a way to replace or update the 'SiSGRV.dll' file if
that helps.

A Google search on sisgrv turned up this and more information.

sisgrv.dll (SiS Compatible Super VGA Driver) is a component from the
software SiS (R) Compatible Super VGA Dispaly Driver for Windows 2000
version 5.13.2072 by Silicon Integrated Systems Corporation.
sisgrv.dll version 5.13.2072 has a file size of 345,971 bytes, and is
most commonly found under the directory "WIN2000" with a creation date
of December 31, 2005. This is not a known spyware, adware, or trojan
component.
 
Shel - do you have the latest drivers for your Sis chipset? Are the drivers
certified by MS as compatible with XP? Its best not to use uncertified
drivers, unless you really know what you're doing. I would look for the
newest possible drivers for the hardware, check to see if they are MS
approved, and install them. On older hardware, a BIOS update from your
motherboard manufacturer may also help.

Good luck!
