llamaboy, do the following for me:
1) Open Start Menu, select Run (alternatively, hit the windows key+r at the same time)
2) Type 'dxdiag' without the quotes
3) If a prompt comes up saying that it might be harmful, go ahead and just click through (you're computer will be fine)
4) After the bar in the lower left hand corner finishes loading all the information, hit the 'Save All Information...' button in the lower right hand corner.
5) Save it to your desktop
6) Add the file as an attachment on here when you reply to your post, this will help us determine more information about your computer and it's hardware.
