I just bought and installed a new video card last Thursday.  I've been trying to get on the NVidia website since then to download the newest drivers but the website hasn't worked once. This is the 4th consecutive day the website has been down it seems.\nhttp://www.nvidia.com\n\nThe error message:\n"Service Unavailable - DNS failure\nThe server is temporarily unable to service your request. Please try again later.\nReference #11.cd7358c0.1145826088.2288fa "

You must have direct-x installed\nIf you do, go to your start menu and click run\ntype 'dxdiag' and hit enter\nin the dialog box that shows up, go under video and see what graphics card is listed.\nThen you can google for the drivers\n\nIf this doesnt work,\nRight click on my computer and select properties\nunder hardware, select device manager\nunder video cards, look for the name and google for drivers\n\nIf that too doesnt work,\nopen up your cpu and look at the graphics card itself. It will definetely have the manufacturers name printed on it\nthen google for drivers\n\nPeace.

get an updated driver for your videocard.   Is it a separate videocard or onboard graphics?  Check the bios and see if onboard graphics is disabled so you can use the separate video card

Ok dude, here's the deal; \n(1.) You can update your video card driver by right clicking on my computer, then click on properties, then on the hardware tab, then on device manager, then click on display adapters, and finally click update driver on the top of the page after higlighting your video card.\n\n(2.) You can buy a new video card and install it. (You could take it to Citcuit City and have them install it for you if you don't know how, also  keep in mind that they are expensive if you wan't to keep up with today's modern games.)\n \nGood Luck---Hope I helped

Two possibilities....\n\n1. Old drivers.\nSolution: Check for the latest video card drivers and make sure you have the latest directX\n\n2. Incompadible or old hardware.\nSolution: means its time for an upgrade. Check the costs and decide wether to get a new PC or a new card.\n\nFeel free to contact me for more info.... If you can tell us the card type and your DirectX version it will make the awnsers more helpfull.

If its under a lot of load you should get a different message about resource conflict from their server. The page cannot be displayed message means that your browser can't even contact the other site. It probably means their server is off due to a fault, cannot be reached DNS (domain name service) error, or a computer on route to theirs is down. I would guess its most likely their personal servers down for maintanence.

Reinstall driver cd or update on the net in your makers site.

I'm having the same trouble. A lot of people in avg's forum are reporting the same thing...my  guess is their site is down.\n\n**Update**\n\nAvg is now working once again I just downloaded my latest updates.\n\navg 7.5 will still be free after January. The only thing that avg has done is to upgrade their free anti-virus to the same level as the paid....avg 7.1 is the one that is expiring.

First and easiest thing to try is downloading and installing the newest version of your video card's drivers.  Check your Device Manager under "Display Adapters" for the model, then go to the manufacturer's website and find the appropriate driver.\n\nI could give you more details if I knew the model of the card.

Make sure if your card is DirectX 9.0 or DirectX 10.0 compatible. \nI have had issues with lack of documentation on which it was compatible with and I installed DirectX 10 and it wouldnt work. \nIf it is directX 10.0, you still should be able to use it under 9.0 but the reverse is not true.\n\nAlso, if you do a complete removal and reinstall of the video drivers, make sure you remove them ALL! If you dont get them all, the problem may still persist. \nSee if the ATI website has a driver removal tool and use it step by step with their instructions!

I'd say that Windows 98 is the problem.  Well, whatever the problem is, download the latest drivers from the manufacturer, for nVidia, http://www.nvidia.com/ and for ATi, http://www.ati.com/ it could also very well be the case that your card is not supported under Windows 98.

It's a problem with your graphics card. I had the same problem and the only way for me to fix it was to buy a new one. You could try updating your driver, that might work, but I doubt it because it didn't help mine. On the bright side, my graphics card was only about $50 and it was really easy to install. If you can't spend the money just uninstall everything and only install Sims up to Nightlife and ask for a video card for Christmas. If you search Sims 2 compatible video card you can find lists that let you know which ones will work.

With the added details, I would have to say the card you bought is pooched.\n\nLaptops are a tough nut.  I build my own desktops, and have done so for around 20 years now.  Laptops, you just don't have the same freedom.  Too many propriatery parts.\n\nYou might want to buy a new video card of the same make and model and give it a shot.  The one you bought was from somebody else's laptop that probably no longer works.\n\n------------\n\nYou are scaring me.  You replaced a video card in a laptop?  Er, how many pieces did you have to tear it into to do that?\n\nDesktop, no problem.  Laptop?  Whoa...\n\n"It's worse than that, it's dead Jim"

What kind of error do you get? You could try running the game in a minimal video configuration.  \n\nMost good games today just plain need a good graphics card.  Integrated video is limited in almost every aspect, so if you want to play games, you'll need some kind of an affordable graphics card.
