Ha, so it was something with the video  :cheesy:

Excellent I am glad you found out what was messing with the video and got it working.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction! I knew it couldn't be a problem with the OS, which is what people were telling me.

I just want to add for future readers, that if you want to remove all traces of video drivers, check out Display Driver Uninstaller. It's for both NVIDIA and ATI/AMD.

You just boot into safe mode, run it, restart, and install new drivers. It turns off Windows Automatic Driver Installation, to prevent from re-installing a version you don't want.
After you properly install your new graphic drivers, open up Display Driver Uninstaller and set this back to default.

And of course, it's always good to backup your registry and make a restore point before doing this.

I also recommend checking the "Remove C:\AMD and or C:\NVIDIA folders" option, so Windows can't automatically re-install old drivers. The aforementioned option should take care of that, but if nothing else, this might free up some disk space.
