Congratulations on your wedding. =)
What video card do you have? What specific video card driver version do you
have?
Do you have an nVidia card? They were shipping non-real-signed drivers for
a while, which is bad and could cause this problem. If you go to them/HP
for a video card driver update, does this then work?
