Tom AZ Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 I had the following folder on my XP/Intel computer: "Intel® 82845G FL GE PE GV Graphics Controller" For some reason, that entire folder (several dlls, a few exe files and a couple sys files) is now on my external hard drive (E:\) -- and I no longer see it anywhere on my C:\ drive. I don't know why or how it got there, but I don't think it's where it belongs. I use that external drive (E:\) only to manually backup selected things from my C:\ drive -- and I didn't knowingly move that folder to the external drive. Can anyone tell me where that folder should be located on my C:\ drive -- and how to move it back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators DennisD Posted June 10, 2008 Moderators Share Posted June 10, 2008 Hi Tom, I've been having a search around to see if I could get some info on your problem. I thought I had a solution yesterday when I found a few genuine links to simply download that Graphics Controller for free and reinstall it. But I noticed just before I posted that although I searched for the right number, all the links I found were for a slightly different version. "Intel? 82845G FL GE PE GV Graphics Controller" is yours, but the one that kept popping up in searches is this one: Intel? 82845G GL GE PE GV Graphics Controller. Could not find the version you posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom AZ Posted June 10, 2008 Author Share Posted June 10, 2008 Hi Tom, I've been having a search around to see if I could get some info on your problem. Thanks for trying to help, Dennis -- I really appreciate it. I'm no longer worrying about it too much because I really haven't experienced any problems. That folder has a bunch of stuff in it (some dlls, a few .exe files and even a couple .sys files). But, maybe they were just used during the original install of the Graphics Controller. Anyway, I've sort of put it out of my mind -- at least for now (or until I have a problem ). For some reason, I'm thinking that the original location might have been in the C:\ root directory. How it got to my external E:\ drive is indeed a mystery??? Thanks again for taking the time to look into it, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
