The debug command is usually helpful in identifying the video card. To start debug: Click on "Start" then click "Run" Type in "debug" then click "OK" You will be presented with a "-" prompt. Type in "d c000:0000" then press enter. You will see something like this: C000:000055 AA 78 EB 4B 37 34 30-30 E9 4C 19 77 CC 56 49U.x.K7400.L.w.VI

In this case, there is still no information which identifies the video card, so we want to type "d c000:00e0" then press enter. C000:00E06F 68 6F 98 6F 98 6F 40-6F 70 DB 32 DC 00 00 00oho.o.o@op.2....

This time, we can see information which identifies our video card. In this case, a GeForce FX 5200. If the video card still can't be identified by this step, try the following commands, pressing enter after each one. d c000:0150
d c000:01c0
d c000:0230
If after these 3 additional commands, the video card isn't identified, the case will need to be opened to physically inspect the video card.
