I have a Windows 98 SE PC that I cannot change the display settings on. I get the following error message.

"The display control panel is unable to change the display settings. Please check your display hardware in device manager."

I have verified that I am using the latest video driver available and the proper card is detected by Device Manager. I have verified that I have the proper monitor driver installed and that it is detected properly by Device Manager. Any ideas?

Stop NetMeeting if you have that running.

Is your monitor identified by name and model?

Remove all video drivers and start fresh.
