That's odd. Try un-installing the gfx driver again and run Driver Sweeper from safe mode. Have it remove any AMD, ATI, and Nvidia graphic driver remnants it finds. Re-boot and install the correct driver for your on-board GPU and operating system.

Before you install the new driver, you may want to run CCleaner to rid your system of registry errors and other crap. Do the Clean and Registry portions both.
