Create a folder on your desktop called Video Drivers.

Download the video drivers to it. Right click and extract the files to the
*same folder*, or extract it using one of the free zip utilities from the PC
World Magazine website:

Click the Setup icon that looks like a computer to install the drivers.
Make sure you *temporarily* disable your anti-virus software since it can
interfere with the installation of the video drivers.

Reboot your PC.
