Screen Rez Help!

My computer contracted a virus that kept me from booting up. To fix it, I reformated my HD and reistalled Win2k. My problem is, I can't seem to make the screen resolution go back to 1240x680 (or whatever it is) and I am stuck with VGA on the lowest possible setting. The display options in the control panel only give the option to go to 800x600, but if I even try to do that, it immediately reverts back, even if I say I want to keep the changes. What do I do???

Sounds like you need to download drivers for your video card. What do you have?

I checked in the boot-up screen... I think I have an ATI M3... if that makes any sense.
