Intel 845 Motherboard Drivers Fix

HERE IS THE SOLUTION....

No need to donwload or install any drivers.
Vista has everything built in.

Only thing is it needs atleast 128 Mb of Video Memory, but for older motherboards like Inter 845 by default the Video Memory is configured to 64 Mb which is resulting in your problem.

So what you have to do is...

SOLUTION:

Restart you computer>Press DEL Key
and
Go to BIOS Settings>Advanced>Video Configuration

1. Change "AGP Aperture Size" from 64 Mb to "128 Mb or Higher"
2. Leave "Primary Video Adapter" as "Integrated"
3. Change "Frame Buffer Size" from 1 Mb to "8 Mb"

and then press F10(i.e., Save changes and continue).

Sometimes, for the first time you may see screen not aligned properly, in that case just restart once more and Vista will automatically adjust the alignment for you.

Also, you can change the resolution to your desired one manually as follows...

1. Click "Start Button"
2. Right click on "Computer"
3. Select "Properties" option from the context menu.
4. Scroll down and find "Disply Settings" option and click it.
5. Adjust Resolution Size and Mode.

NOW, ENJOY USING VISTA.....

Intel doesn't appear to have drivers available at their site for that controller, they might have the drivers on the windows update site. But even if they did the Intel 845G will not support Vista's Aero theme or any off the nice features since it is not a Directx 9 graphics chip. you might need to buy a new video card.
