Back To Basics
If you have the correct drivers for your video display, then installing video in Windows NT 4.0 isn't much of a problem. Unfortunately, if you don't have the very latest drivers and are trying to work with the generic drivers, you can get into a situation in which the system won't run. If this happens to you, you need to boot using the generic VGA driver and try again.

Note that when you use the generic drivers for a video card, you may find that full color at the higher resolutions is unattainable. This is where many Windows NT users encounter a video problem. If you make an incorrect resolution selection, NT will usually revert to the existing resolution. Unfortunately, sometimes NT will attempt to use the new (unattainable) setting.
