Answer
Hi Rachel, do you know what video card you have or if it's built into the motherboard (not a separate video card in that case)? Is this a brand name computer? If so, give me the brand and exact model so we can try looking up the correct drivers for it.

You can try using DriverMax:

Install it and run the program. Look for the option there to detect your hardware. See if it can detect what video card you have there.
