If you have a video card, you need to get the manufactures name and model number of it, and then go to their website for the latest drivers.

If you have 'on-board' video, you need to get the manufactures name and model number of your motherboard, and then go to that website for the latest drivers.

Many of the new video cards require direct X in order to work.

I would reinstall Direct X as well as the original drivers.
