| Hi beetee Are you having any problems with your computer at the moment? This would help to diagnose the problems. The PCI Bridge entry is probably not worth worrying about too much unless something on your computer is not actually working. It could be any number of things. From the description you give about the motherboard it would appear that you do not have a graphics card. This is a picture of a graphics card ![]() And another showing a graphics card and another PCI card installed on the motherboard. ![]() Admittantly not a very good picture but it does give you an idea of what it looks like. If your monitor connector plugs into the motherboard then you definitely have onboard video. Post back a reply to my earlier questions and I will be able to advise you what to do from there.

| Serverguy, I am having no problem with my computer,its just when I got it built,I was told that it would have the capacity to run 2 monitor from it at once.As I really need to run 2 monitors at the min,I was looking into graphics cards etc,and I thought the yellow question marks in device manager were something to do with it Therefore I have posted on the forum,but as you see I know just about zilch how these machines work. Anyway,after looking again,I dont think there is a graphics card in the machine. Thanks Brian |
