    Hi

    As that laptops chipset is Intel 915GM series, then you'll need the Intel Chipset Driver for that as it allows AGP adn USB to be aquired correctly and then the Intel Graphics Driver, both listed here. Listing the XP drivers as you dont mention which OS your using, so as this the most common.

    Chipset

    Graphics

    Install the chipset first.

    Did you get this message on the Chipset or Graphics driver install?


    Get this http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4181.html install it then click Computer > Summary and post the info under Motherboard.


    Reading another thread of yours are you running Vista? If so then you may not get drivers for the graphics to install as there are no WDDM Aero drivers for that chipset and with your lack of RAM at 256MB, you would have to run with what graphics driver Vista installed and it will be a basic one, http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/cs-023606.htm#3
