Maybe you need to install chipset drivers, ie motherboard drivers.
Then install/reinstall video card drivers. You might want to have
a look in bios and make sure your video settings are correct. For
example if you have a agp video card make sure that video is set
for agp, not pci..

No. You need a better video card.
