I've been having a lot of problems with my graphics card, Standard VGA Graphics Adapter. I can't seem to enable aero or play 3D games like Minecraft. I tried to download other graphics cards, but they don't seem to install correctly or just won't work or show up at all. Can someone recommend me a good graphics card that can work? Thanks :)

You are talking video card DRIVER, you need the current one for your system, VGA is the default driver that you would also see if running 7 in safe mode, it is HORRIBLE for anything but testing.

So, I suggest you visit piriform.com (or cpuid.com for gpu-z) and download and run SPECCY to determine your actual video card, and acquire the driver from the web site of the brand in question, or the PC/laptop's manufacterer's site.

Even if it's just an on the motherboard GPU, those programs should find it.
