    I can't help you find e-star's site but you should be able to get a driver elsewhere if you can identify what your graphics card is. The only surefire way to identify your graphics card in windows when the drivers are not installed for the card is to use the debug command.
    Do the following: Open MS-DOS prompt (if it's Win9x or Me) or Command Prompt (if it's Win XP/2K or NT4). Type debug and press enter, now type d:C000:0010. Look at the right hand side of the prompt window, this is info read into memory from the bios of the graphics card. If you don't see anything that would be the name of the graphics card type d and press enter to read the next bit from memory, continue to type d and press enter, the name of the graphics card should appear within at most 5 repeats of typing d followed by enter. Type q and enter to exit debug mode. Then look for the driver by searching using your graphic card name rather than your pc make.
    Look at the images in the link below to see what I mean.
