So i though "Oh i better update my videocard" i looked at my video card and it says "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter" i looked on google and i couldnt find a download for it. Plz can you help me.

Why would you reformat your computer to windows vista?
Vista is a horrible operating system. If anything get linux or windows 7.

Indeed. Also what about xandros linux Razz
I never used it but it is suppose to be similar to window users so possibly .16 but that is a guess which I doubt.
