:o! Well it would be bettering the system if you did - I suggest consulting with her about it, as downloading the latest drivers is usually important. It might even fix your problem. :D

Edit: Also, what's the name of your GPU? If you got permission from your mum to update, I could try and find the drivers for you. :3

It should look like this:



Also! in the system tab, next to operating system, which version of Windows 7 do you have? 32 bit or 64 bit?

So would I have to buy a new updated graphics card or would that be just a free download from Microsoft?  I'm not sure what the name of my GPU is, and I'm also unsure if I'm running 32 or 64 bit.

The driver is a free download from whomever your graphics card manufacturer is. To figure out the requisite information, you just type dxdiag into the start menu search bar, like this:



Then after you type that in to the required area and press enter, it will bring up a window much like the one in my previous post. You can figure out of your operating system is 32 bit or 64 bit in the system tab (should be on it by default) by seeing what's written next to "Operating System", then if you click on the display tab up top, the GPU name will be located in the area I circled with red. :3

Yay! I guess it doesn't even matter anymore because now FH works perfectly!  I'm not even sure how this fixed.  I think we had a virus though that wasn't letting FH run.
