      Every time I try to install it, it says my current display driver is not supported by this game. Where can I get a supported driver?

      You need to set your resolution down to 640×480 256 colors before you can install or play the game. Compatibility mode does not change this soon enough before the game checks it. Go to your advanced display settings to change to this display mode befor you install or play KQ5.

      Sorry! I didn’t know you could just edit your post. I’m so used to MSN. I ended up making a new one.

      I went into control panel and display. I tried moving the bar as far as it would go and it stopped at 800×600. Is there another way to change it?

      Click the Advanced button. Go to the Adapter tab. Click the “List all modes” button.

      Thank You so much! It worked like a charm. I’m glad someone is proficient in windows XP.
