Question CentOS graphic driver problem

All

I have a CentOS 5 installed with SiS300 graphic card.The system was accidentally restarted and when it cam e back up I only get stripes on my monitor. It looked like some corrupt graphic driver.
How can I resolve this?
Is there any repair functionality that restores the corrupt drivers..Pleas lemme know

Thanks

Curious, I would have thought a corrupt driver would just plain fail. Have you experienced this effect from corrupt drivers before?

Can you boot to single user - text only?
You should check /etc/X11/xorg.conf to make sure the correct driver is being used.

Driver notes. Important info for linux/SiS-graphics owners.
