What vid card do I have?

Hi, I have an old laptop and I can`t find out what the video card is. Is there a small dos program that could tell me what the video card is and any other info about the laptop.

Thanks Doot

Thanks, did the trick. Found out what I needed. Also told me that the HD was bigger than the bios could handle. But I don`t think I`ll be able to get a newer bios for it now.
