you need to find your original driver disks and you should get more than a 16bit display should be 32bit.

I just checked my current graphics card, my 8100 has a 32mb NVidia GeForce2 MX with TV out properties......................
Would that info make any difference?

what should I do about my mouse cursor, It's all plugged in but there's nothing onscreen that I can click icons with, I've been using just the keyboard....
What could I do about that?

Do you have a cordless mouse ? You might need new batteries.
You should find out the difference between usb connections and PS2.

Otherwise you will maintain IDEOT status.
