first off click start and type msconfig and go to the boot tab and remove the bottom entries (assuming the top one is the one that works).
Then you have to download the correct drivers for your video card. right click my computer, select manage, and go to device manager. Look for any ?. Your video controller should be listed with a ?, so right click on it and select update driver. you must be connected to the internet, and it will search and install your driver.
