My "Graphics" and "Gaming Graphics" ratings are both 1.0. What do I need to do to increase them?

Make sure you have the latest video card driver installed and that hardware acceleration is turned on."...

My 3 year old was playing "Purble Place" and accidentally opened several windows and had quite a few things up on the screen. We don't have an internet connection yet, so there isn't a risk of viruses, etc. But, ever since this happened only "Ink Ball" will open. The other games appear to still be on the computer (icons, info regarding them, etc) but nothing will open to play. Any tips...
