Ok, So here is a summary of what I have been going thru... I have a problem with an old'ish game called Command and Conquer Tiberian Sun.

That shouldnt be happening.but when I get to those menus, I just click on things like missions internet shrimish mode to play a game but it pops up with that grey bar and I can't do nothing however when I take a picture it's fine so I had to take a picture on my phone and when I alt and tab out and back in then screen is normal but when I join the chat room by doing alt and tabbing to get thru options 1 by 1 and when I'm in chatroom nobody types but when I alt and tab out and back there is a bunch of writings. I have tried changing all drivers from new to old and tried all things i have of knowlegde even took it to shop. No avail.
Tried all the patch and changing graphic settings with Intel and Nvidia. no luck at all...Posted on numerous forums for help no luck.
This morning I did a format and reinstall windows 7 64 bit. installed NOTHING... I choose to install Nvidia first but it said to install Intel graphic first so I installed intel graphic and tried to load up the game.. still the same problem that's lead to me to believe it's the intel graphic that is causing it.
Here is the video

My previous laptop was running Tiberian Sun fine but it had ATI Raedon.
Please help thank you, From what I have read on Command and Conquer forums it seems that I am not the only issue with this.

As far as my knowledge can reach in order to avoid graphics compatibility problem it is recommended to install two identical graphics card only. Take not , you have two unidentical graphics card, the first one is the intel HD family, and the other is Nvidia, this is a mix up, this might be the real problem, if you prefer intel HD family graphics card you should install two identical Intel HD family graphics card only, or if you prefer Nvidia graphics card you should install two identical Nvidia graphics card only.
