My brothers computer is very old, it was made by Gateway and we don't have the driver disk. I've tried to get them online but none of them work for installation, I can't do any updates or the color will go down from 16 bit to 4 bit. Not pretty.
What would I do for getting all the drivers - especially the display drivers? What is a known website that has all the drivers that are on the original disk?
Here are the computers current settings:

Keep in mind that I can't do any updates or the color will revert back to 4 bit. So I can't get SP2 or 3 until I find out how to get my display drivers working.
