You didn't install any driver. Please install latest driver from your manufacturer.

What driver do I need for a Nvidia Geforce 8800 GTS? Windows 7 says I have it up to date.

If it's 32 bit, here: http://www.nvidia.com/object/win7-winvis...river.html
If it's 64 bit, here: http://www.nvidia.com/object/win7-winvis...river.html

cheers, uninstalled the driver, rebooted (because it wouldn't recognise the card to install the freshly downloaded driver), installed the freshly downloaded driver and it works.
