    have you tried looking at http://www.ibm.com/support ?

    They have every single driver and machine spec there.

    but thanks for the "Machine Spec" link...

    Have you tried ringing IBM support?

    Or try www.google.com (groups).

    How old is this machine? It doesn't appear to have any drivers beyond Win NT/3.1 which would seem to suggest the machine is pretty old.

    This any use?

    Here is the li9nk to the device driver diskette you need. It is a combo, including video drivers.

    From IBM "Description
    This upgrade assists in installing the Windows 95 Operating System. Includes changes for BIOS, Video Device Drivers and certain control files. "

    It was on the www.ibm.com/support site.

    Use the diskette while reinstalling 95 and youre disply will be fine.

    Remember you can run setup on Win95, without losing data.

    i know that you are sometimes forced to use the "wrong" driver to get some windows hardware working...
    and there is not a single driver / update on this disk for my thinkpad...
    BUT and that shocked me it worked with the video drivers for a 8511 (or whatever) ,
    my thinkpad has a 9545 tft... (ohh boy)

    thanx for the help =)

    @Xterminator
    you have a thinkpad, have you?!
