[AccessD] No display adapter

Yea, that is my last gasp effort before buying a new hard disk and
rebuilding the system.

Repairing a Windows install is what I did before and it was a PITA, with the
typical issues - 2 hours to do the install (!!!!!), have to call Microsoft
to get a new key because the network isn't initialized at that point, etc.
etc.

Perhaps you should try a second Repair Install of Windows. You said you
found the device driver disk now right?  Sounds like it can't get much worse
anyway.
