Hi, Thanks again.
                So, the standard vga drivers are not enough. One has to see the model and go to the website to download the drivers for which card or hardware , the drivers are meant. Simply, put it, if you bought the computer that has hardware supported to a particular OS, you have to download the drivers for the same OS, and make change in the compatibility tab to your previous OS to install the drivers. Otherwise, you get the errors, of Os not supported.

Samson:
The Bottom line is "Check your hardware first if it supports the task you try".  :wink:

jraju:
It is the other way around, my hardware supports the video, but the compatibility is the issue. Do you suggest any change in the bottom lines.
                    That was the idea, when i tried wireless without a supported hardware in my computer. here in this case, my hardware supports the video , but the microsoft generic drivers gave me the problem. Even your idea of let me pick would have done the trick

Samson:
According to the attachment in your first post you were not using MS generic drivers, but Intel Corp's 6.14.10.4396.

Now you are using Intel's  6.14.10.4363 (from the DELL link I posted).

From the Intel link that I posted the version is 6.14.10.4396 (the same as you were using)

Who knows, maybe by rolling back to an older version was the fix? If you are feeling brave then reinstall 6.14.10.4396 from the Intel link, in compatability mode for XP as you have done for 6.14.10.4363.

Either way, although it is a workaround, compatibility mode is not ideal and crashes/ BSOD are not unexpected especially when using graphics intensive applications (such as playing DVDs). The longer term solution would be to add a Win7 supported card, if you can get one cheaply. But do you really want to spend out much on a 10+ year old machine?

"Let me pick" was Boggin's suggestion, not mine give him the thanks for that, not me.

Hi, Thanks boggin.
                     The fact is that when i try to update the driver, it says that windows found that it is the required update and nothing is there in microsoft source.
                       The intel drivers, when installed has shown a message alert that i am having a later version than the one downloading. I says yes and then it installed.
                         Hi, samson,
                             I do not know, whether i could add any graphics card other than the one have, because it is integrated with mobo. i think. can i add a card and use the new one that supports new one disabling the old one . Since most queries have answered by you, i missed boggin.
