    ok so i wanted to try out the game second life just for fun , i downloaded it and when i ran it it said i had to update my drivers , apparently i downloaded the wrong drivers and i got this error message , so i went to a website that supposedly has the "right" one , but it said i had to uninstall my old ones first , i did so and the pc restarted , and after i got to the windows the screen was all missed up , it had this really weird shape and i couldnt get it back to normal , i installed the drivers i downloade and the problem is still there

    my video card is geforce fx 5200 128 MB

    someone please help

    will system restore fix all of this?
    even if it does i still need the new drivers and a way to install them without getting my screen missed up again

    edit:- i have no check points , the only one is like 2 minutes ago , please i really need to fix this and i dont want to put a new windows , the game works well now but the resoloution is all missed up , so apparently these ARE the new drivers , but how do i fix the screen?
