Poor image on screen?

Hard to say what's wrong with that, but as a first try I would say, uninstall your Graphics driver, and download a new one from Makers site. Make sure you know what graphic card you have, or chip if it's a laptop. The sites you would need to go to are either,
nvidia, ATI, or Intel. If you don't know which you have, go to your 'Search' box, type 'dxdiag'
press enter, and on the first screen you see, click on the second tab, 'Display', it will have the make and type of your Graphics chips. Hope that's of use.
