Can't start driver

Hi there,

I recently installed Window 7 on my laptop, and it is using what appears to be a generic driver for the display. However, my motherboard has integrated Intel HD graphics, and the videos won't play correctly anymore. I can see the driver installed in the Device Manager, but it's not enabled. I tried to enable it, but it says that the resources are being used by another driver. How do I switch to the Intel HD driver without screwing up my display? I can't even find the generic driver in the list.
