Installed Vista and Now My Graphics are Bad

Hi,

Forgive me first of all as I know very little about vista.

I installed vista on my PC and now the graphics are completely bad.
The colours are all strange, the resolution is very big etc.. it seems
like I might need to have installed something else?

Yes! you are quite right... you need to install the drivers for your
graphic device. Usually it is enough to run the windows update and Vista
will detect and install the appropriate drivers. If not go to the
website of your graphic device manufacturer and download and install the
latest Vista drivers.

Uh, yeah. Like Vista drivers for your video/graphics card.

Find them at your computer mfr's website.

You can try downloading the video drivers for your video card.

NVIDIA: http://www.nvidia.com
ATI: http://ati.amd.com

If it is another brand, you can just go to the manufacturers site and
download them from there.

That should fix any issues you are having.

Yes, and that something else would be the motherboard/chipset and video
drivers.

Your PC should have come with a CD of drivers, or you can look at the
manufacturer's site. If there are no Vista drivers, you can't really run
Vista successfully.
