What is wrong with my laptop?
Okay so yesterday my computer got a virus and i deleted that old operating system and installed a hacked version of windows called tiny xp.
(yes i know i pirated and please don't give me a mouthful about in the answer)
everything works except when i go under Control Panel>System>Device Manager there is no display settings tab! I don't see why everything else would work but this so i don't think its the hacked operating system because my friend has 5 of his computers running it and they all work nicey with no problems. Im runing a Compaq Presario V2000 if that helps. also when i use the scroll bar in my browser each time i move it kind of loads each screen instead of doing one smooth motion. when i look for my video card in Start Menu>Run>(type in)Dxdiag and look at the Display tab this shows up

I Also downloaded a program called Dirver Detective to see if it was because i was missing any drivers and it didnt even say i had a display device in the first place! Im positive i did because before this virus this laptop could play World Of Warcraft and now when i try it says "Failed to find a suitable display device. exiting program now"

Any tips?

Try going to your Start Menu>Run and typing dxdiag (its just a diagnostics screen) and looking at your display tab. You'll see what i mean
