that normally happens if u are using window's default video drivers.

Just download the updates drivers for your integrated card and u should be fine.

You can find those drivers by going to the manufacturer's website and looking up the model of your computer...or I can even just do it for you if you tell me what it is. You'll also want to run what's called "driver cleaner" to clean out all of the left over junk from the other two cards to avoid software issues.

That sucks that your computer wants to be retro. But hey you could always watch a bunch of Power Rangers, Sailor Moon and Dragon Ball Z reruns until it's fixed. :P
