Besides what Lafanter said try the following:

a. Check your C: drive, a lot of the manufacturers put all their drivers in a folder on there.
b. In Device Manager right click on the yellow VGA icon and try updating the driver. First the drivers might still be there even though uninstalled. Second it may automatically find the drivers off the 'net.

If I were you I would install win xp on it.
1-99.99% you will have your vga driver in win xp
2-You will have a fresh laptop with out any undesired softwares on it.

^^KA, a lot of laptops come with components whose drivers are not included with XP. Specially older laptops. Best is to contact the manufacturer for drivers.

Its just I had trouble finding driver for older ibm laptop.

After spending few hrs I just try adjusting display setting to like 1200-900 , I came as a surprise that It let me do that.
Than it occur to me that that was the reason they didn't have vga driver on for xp on their website.

But Again I am no expert.
