Video Card changed to standard VGA graphic adapter

[Naruto3]

I did a clean install from Vista to Windows 7 on my laptop. My old card is GeForce 8400M GT. I went to upgrade some drivers, and I saw that my display is now standard VGA graphic adapter. I tried uninstalling it and downloading the drivers of my video card, but I can't install it because it said my hardware isn't compatible. My system info for display says:

I'm not sure if the card can't be run on win 7 or if there's anyway to load my old card.

If your video card is 8400M GT

You may need to download motherboard/chipset drivers first from your manufacturer's website.

You can also try to just install the video drivers while the default windows ones are still installed. Sometimes when you uninstall the previous drivers, it will seem like there's no hardware there, so the setup programs won't even complete.
