Maybe if we can track down the adapter that Windows thinks is there. Try this sequence:

Start Button|Settings|Control Panel|Display
Click on the Settings tab
Click on the Advanced button
Click on the Adapter tab

It should look something like this:



and let us know what the results are.

That appears to be an older video chipset. Here's a link to the Trident chip maker tech support/downloads page:
TridentMicro

You might also check with the manufacturer of your motherboard since some MB makers modified the behavior of the integrated graphics chips. You can see who the maker is during the BIOS bootup on the black screen.

Other thoughts:
Ensure that you're not running other memory-hungry programs in the background (active anti-virus, etc.); try installing to another location (after doing a scandisk and disk defrag); and check out Saz's Help Desk too.
