Help...disabled Video Adapter

carr85wa · 04-13-2007, 05:00 AM

I can't explain why I did it, but I disabled my video adapter. Now when I go to settings, all that is there is my default monitor and it is unchangeable. I didn't delete or uninstall anything, i just simply disabled it not thinking. It was a NVidia Radeon 7500 for my laptop, and i desperately need it... any help at all would be greatly appreciated...

When you say disabled it, do you mean from Device Manager

i went to display properties> settings> advanced> adapter> then disable. Something like that. All i know is that enable is not there anymore along with my adapter.
