What is the make and model of the computer?

You can most likely get a basic card for @$75 US.

Not completely sure, but I will see if I can get my family computer on it.

"DAD!! Can I help around the yard for nothing at all?"
...
"NO! I am NOT trying to butter you up to let me download somthing on our family computer!"
...
"Shoot."

I've also been experiencing the same problem.

The following is a copy of my scan that I did:

**please direct me with instructions, I have no idea what's going on with my computer.

i think there's also something wrong with my computer...
..i can't dwld ANYTHING that you've recommended so far..

there's something wrong with my database or smthin..
cuz it can't connect to my database =S.

No ID on the video card probably means no drivers.

Begin by reading the following section of This Guide.

I just quote the preliminaries. Scroll down the page for information of detecting your hardware and locating the proper drivers.

[3.0.0] MapleStory

[3.1.0] MapleStory Errors

[3.1.1] "Failed in finding proper screen mode for Gr2D"
This section would be helpful to you if:

--> you have reinstalled Windows recently on your computer;
--> you have never played MS on your computer before;
--> you are trying to run MS in a virtual machine (jump to [3.1.1.6] now);

This section does not apply to you if:

--> MS worked on your computer before but you have not reinstalled Windows between now and the previous time it worked;
--> MS worked on your computer before but due to a patch or a GameGuard update, it no longer works;

If the last two applies to you, I suggest you do some universal fixes right now: reboot, reinstall the client, redownload and reinstall the client, system restore to an earlier point where it does work, and/or email Wizet (but make sure you mention that MS worked previous to a patch or whatever event that made it not work). It also wouldn't hurt to try these sections, but you will have a lesser chance of getting it to work compared to the people these sections are written for.

I am having the same problem with the error message. I have read quite a few other posts. Any help is appreciated

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs and remove your ATI program.

Then go to ATI and install the latest version:

You will need to reset your screen resolution afterwards.
