List Of problems please help

hey i dunno if this is the right place for this but i really need help, ever since iv wiped my hard drive clean iv had nothing but trouble first i didnt have the drvers for my ethernet ports then all i got was a diskette error and now im having trouble with my graphics card i think.
 
You see before my comp crashed my card worked fine and played all of my games like world of warcraft and sims 2 etc,  But since its crashed only a few games work and the rest I get errors from now my world of warcraft and sims dont work and it tells me iv got 0mb memory even tho i know i have it.
 
now some games tell me that my direct x 9.0c isnt installed propery but i know it is as iv downloaded it 10 + times and installed it from various sources.
 
my direct x troubleshooter is telling me :
 

The system is using the generic video driver. Please install video driver provided by the hardware manufacturer.

DirectDraw test results: All tests were successful.

Direct3D functionality not available. You should verify that the driver is a final version from the hardware manufacturer.

 

now i never got any other drivers with my re start package and all the ones i did get iv installed so what have I missed?

By the way im using a Dimenson 4700 with a pentium 4 3.00 GHz 512 MB of RAM

so yeah any help at all would be most gratefull

    Did you follow the reinstallation guide for your system, or did you just sort of make it up as you went along? Methinks the latter. Anyway, refer to this for all the details.
