Dell inspiron 1100 and Windows Vista?

I have a dell inspiron 1100 and I just installed Windows vista. It is the 32 bit version- however, I can't get my resolution set to anything bigger than 640x480... I went to download drivers from dell and I don't see anything. PLEASE HELP!

Answers:
Have you tried Windows Update in Control Panel? A lot of the missing drivers can be found there and are updated on a regular basis. Click on the left to check for updates and install everything you see. Including optional updates.

If you have the ultimate version, you will see language packs - you dont need these.
if they gipped you off and gave you a crappy graphics card, just buy one off of tigerdirect.com, get an nvidia geforce 7000 type of card
Find out the actual chipset manufacturer of your graphics card, such as nVidia or ATI, go to their website, and download the proper drivers for vista. That's what I usually do when reinstalling windows.
You can try ...

1) Updating the video drivers in Device Manager.

2) Call or visit (online) Dell's tech support and pose your question there.
Upgrade video driver.
