Hello, I uninstalled some programs that i didn't use anymore, like games, video converters, audio converters and quicktime and now my laptop's display keeps goes back to the default settings and a few of my programs cannot work. (like steam)

I use an Asus x42j with windows 7, i7 and a 1 gb graphics card.

(oh and i'm not sure where i should post this..)
 
@fantastik250 I had my browser open when I installed it

@alyoshka oh so everything goes back to default?

This is what I got when I ran that program

Oh it's fine? but it still doesnt work for me. And I found out a few shortcuts on the key board doesn't work anymore. (but I didn't change any of my settings)

I've been a little busy so I didn't have the time to check. But thank you for all the help!

Oh and do you guys know anything about itunes? Because I keep getting a pop up telling me to update it whenever I try to sync my ipod, when it's already the most updated version so far.
