Hello.
Has anyone run into this problem?
On a Dell Optiplex GXa (running Windows NT Workstation, Sp3), attempts to
reinstall the video driver (and also the basic VGA driver) have failed with
the following error message:
"The drivers were not successfully installed. You may not have the
required privileges to install a new driver."
We've tried checking the harddrive for errors but found none. Reinstalling
Service Pack 3 didnt help either. And security permissions on several
c:\winnt subdirectories and the actual existing driver files seemed fine.
Does anyone have any advice?
Thanks,
Leonard
