The information in this article applies to:
This article was previously published under Q193508 If this article does not describe your hardware-related issue, please see the following Microsoft Web site to view more articles about hardware: SYMPTOMS
After you install Windows 98, you may be unable to change your display
settings to a resolution that is higher than 640 X 480 with 16 colors.
Also, if you view the Settings tab in the Display tool in Control Panel,
the tool may report that you have an unknown monitor on an unknown device.
If you then view Display Adapter properties in the Device Manager tool, it
may report that a Microsoft Windows 3.1 driver is in use.
CAUSE
This issue can occur if you are using an Avance Logic Peripheral Component
Interconnect (PCI) video adapter. Windows 98 does not include drivers
for this video adapter, so when Setup detects this adapter, it installs a
standard VGA driver, and this driver is not capable of displaying a
resolution that is higher than 640X480 with 16 colors.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, contact Avance Logic to inquire about the
availability of a video adapter driver to resolve this issue.
