I installed the Windows Internet Explorer 7.0 for Windows XP, Dell Inc. -
Monitors - Dell E176FP, and Nvidia Corporation - Video - NVIDIA GeForce2
MX/MX 400 updates and now my computer won't let me set the screen resolution
at anything but 640 x 480 pixels and low color quality. Please help!

Hi Savannah,

Never get drivers from windows update unless you want troubles. Always get
drivers from the manufactures site

Try rolling back on the driver or get the latest driver for your graphics
card at http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_2k_93.71.html

Best regards,
Michel Denie

Mine is set for 1024 x 768 but I experience frequent Product 256_1 crashes

Hi there,

The driver update from windows update causes this, roll back on previous
driver or download the apropiate driver from Dell and install the driver.
