Do Windows Update. If the drivers prevent you from connecting to the Internet, do Windows Backup (I don't know exactly what it's called but it restores your computer to how it was before except it keeps your current files). If Windows Update doesn't solve the problem, just do Windows Backup.

Don't put misleading information.

Basically you need to install drivers to your graphics and/or sound. You can find good information on internet about it, and I can't point anything until at least you point out what GPU you have.

I need to update that page.  For windows 7, to find out what video card you have, click on Start -> Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Device Manager -> Display adapters

Also, error window should give you an option to open a page with instructions on how to update your drivers.
