explanation: you very probably have intel integrated graphics

fix: wheres vectorracer? hes got a link in his sig to fix it.

the best fix: if youve got a dell/compaq/other crappy brand then you may not be able to install anything but a pci video card. the best fix is to get a better video card. let me rephrase that. the best fix is to get a good video card.

what we need: a search button

The integrated graphics (IG) system is the problem, unfortunately the only fix I know of is a new mother board. You can try to put a new graphics card in, but chances are it won't work. My last computer had IG, when I tried to put in a new PCI card, it didn't want to die.

Wait for intel to release new drivers *evil grin*

Seriously mate, it's your graphics chip. There is nothing you can do about it really. If you want to get rid of all your problems, get a new card (or better... get "a" card).
