Resolution help

[tich]

Hey all,
i'm new here.
ok.
i have win xp installed on my machine and i'm using the vga that came with my motherboard intel 865gbf.
2 days ago, when i was starting windows, i didn't see the windows "xp loading" with the progress bar, instead, my lcd screen began to flicker. :(
since then it is always like this. yestarday i was on the internet , suddenly, the screen turned black and the screen began to flicker again. i used the narrator to enter the display menu and set the resolution to 1024*768(like it always used to be). i don't know why it changed to 640*480. finnaly the screen reappeared but the taskbar and the all programs menu stayed at 640*480. how can i change this, pls help!!!! :(

Do you have up to date anti virus, spyware and adware apps? If so, have you
run them?

Yes, i have mcafee virusscan 9.0 and up-to-date, registry mechanic 5.0 also up-to-date, wintools.net professional, and microsoft ant-spyware beta version(i couldn't use it cos it expired since 31 july).
i scanned my computer, found 3 unwanted programs but they were not a big deal, and i still have this resolution prob :(
