Hi there,

That leads me to believe that you are not installing the correct video driver. Make sure you get the old video driver removed. The best way is to load Windows in Safe Mode, go to Device Manager, and remove every video driver that is listed there. The reboot and load windows in Normal Mode and install the correct drivers.
