Does it matter if my graphic card is by/ not by nvidia? I have no clue what my graphic card is or how to find what it is...:S noobness!
I'd say your problem is right here. Especially in Vista it is important to have the latest drivers. One way to find out what graphics card you have is to go Run (where ever that might be in Vista :P) and type in dxdiag (I'd assume they didn't change it). In XP, the information you are looking for is under the third tab from the left (most likely labeled Monitor or Display, using a non-English XP myself). Then if you could tell us what card you have.

ATI drivers
nVidia drivers
