UNSOLVED
Display not displaying proper colors
I inherited a used dell computer from a friend. It was pretty messed up so I reformatted the hard drive and installed windows 98 SE. (I didn't have the restore CD so I did a clean install) Everything is working except the display doesn't work right. It doesn't display enough colors. The monitor works on another computer so I think it has something to do with the video drivers. I don't have any of the original software that came with the computer.
Any suggestions what I can do next? The modem doesn't work either but I have DSL and that is working ok.

- Click on Product Support (at the top of the page) and select Downloads from the drop-down menu. In the new page, enter your Service Tag number (if you don't know it, use Dell's utility to find it for you or look in the BIOS). Then, it's a simple matter to enter the word "All", select your operating system, "Microsoft Windows 98", and the operating system language, "English", to gain access to all the hardware drivers for your computer. Dells Support Resources can also detect the current system configuration or origional system configuration (by running a small application that you must authorize) that will inventory the computers hardware so you'll be better able to download the correct drivers.
