It sounds like a video drive problem to me, have you tried booting into safe mode?

Reboot in to Safe mode:
Restart Windows after you see the BIOS screen and before Windows starts to load.
Start tapping the F8 key. The Windows Advanced Options Menu appears.
Use the Arrow key to ensure that the Safe Mode option is selected.
Press Enter. The computer then begins to start in Safe mode.

Once in safe mode check the Device Manager for a yellow icon for your Display Adaptor.
Most likely you will have to download the drivers for you video card.
