I have video card with 1x-00392-007 pasted on the card. can anyone tell me what kind of driver this may be? i know it is from STB systems.
thanks

to find out what type of card it it, right click your desktop>properties>settings tab and it should tell you what your adapter is right under the picture of the monitor.

it will only provide a generic driver for the card. I actually have an integrated card and I am trying to update to this one. I had bought it some time ago, when I had a computer rebuilt, that is why I am unsure what type it may be.

The only STB card I've ever seen is my old voodoo3. You could try finding drivers for that one and see if it will take them.

I have tried finding a driver update. But the only ansver I get is like this :

COMPUTER DRIVERS
Downloading a driver from a third party company

Unfortunately the company you need drivers for has either gone out of business, their web page is no longer available, and/or no longer provides drivers for this product. This means we are unable to provide you with a direct link to the manufacturers page or their driver page.

But maybe Driver guide got them?
They use to have the most unusual drivers for download.

Maybe, the best thing you can do, is to get a PCI video card? Those fits into any PCI slot. on your mother board. This I say, because I cant find any Specification for your motherboard. I.e. can't tell if it got an AGP port ( AGP = Accelerated Graphic Port), for a "normal" video card?

Newegg have some different PCI video cards to choose from:

Sapphire Radeon 9250. 128 mb. PCI for 49 USD ( left picture). or XFX nVIDIA GeForce FX5200 Video Card, 128MB DDR, TV-Out, PCI, Model "PVT64KNT" -RETAIL. 65. USD. (Right picture)

http://www.newegg.com/

If you decide to go for a PCI card. Make sure that it does'nt say PCI Express, as PCI Express cards won't fit your motherboard.


But if you want a really good PCI card for gaming etc. I think this is the best you can get: Jaton nVIDIA GeForce FX5700LE Video Card, 128MB DDR, 128-Bit, TV-Out/DVI, Low Profile, PCI Model "Video-248PCI-DVI" -RETAIL. 104 USD at Newegg.
