If you do not know how to do this, download the latest drivers for your graphics card and perform a clean re-installation. For Nvidia drivers, make sure to check the "Clean re-installation" checkbox. For AMD I am not sure if it's part of the setup, please uninstall your current drivers first if they don't allow that during setup.
