IBM T23 Video card problem

[sloomy]

Hi,

Windows does not recognize the video card of my IBM T23.

Here is one screenshot:



I have tried every driver ( incl. original IBM and the last officiel S3 Driver) but the installation always breaks up with error.

Is the video card defective?

What can i do now ? Every solution suggestion is welcome.

regards

s.

This sentence means, setup was not able to end the installation. Details about this is in Windows folder. And i have already posted, what is in this file written.

I think, that this both sentences describes the problem, windows somehow can not recognize my graphic card. I have also tried a from a Linux Live Cd and also the graphic card was not recognized.

It really looks like a problem with your system board. I would update the BIOS once again, but I wouldn't get my hopes up....
