I agree with the above post. If you go to Control Panel -> System -> Hardware tab -> Device Manager (or hold Windows Key + Pause Break at the same time to bring up System Properties) look under "Display" and see if it's the Microsoft SMS Display driver that's installed by default.

If so, you need the specific driver for your card, which could be onboard or a seperate graphics card depending on your setup.

Also, a trip to Windows Update, and doing a custom search (rather than express) may find a suitable driver (though sometimes, not the latest version.)
