I haven't updated my video card drivers in forever (I'm not joking, I have never updated them). I didn't buy my computer, my parents did. Well, there's a sticker that gives you information about the computer on the tower thing. It says the RAM, hard drive capacity, video card, etc. Well, when my dad bought the computer, he got a better video card for it. The only problem is, he doesn't know what he bought! And neither do I, so I have no way of updating the drivers. How can I find out what video card is currently in my computer?

Aside from Boltsniper's suggestion, if the driver is poorly named the best way to find out is often to open the case and look at the card itself.

Out of curiosity, why do you keep coming to post at your least favorite nerf site?

Wow, Bolt your answer is way better than mine. And on a different note I think it's 'cause this is the better site. He just can't see it yet.

I was wondering that too. Although, I think he posts more on NHQ. Anyways, why do you post on NHQ if NH is your favorite site?

MattPaintballer, pray to god your video card isn't integrated into your motherboard.

Don't worry about the things you don't know. Do sheep expand in the rain? Who discovered how to get milk from cows? And what was he doing in the first place?

I post on NHQ because it's my second favorite Nerf site.

He described NH with no small amount of loathing.

I think there's a difference.
