Video Controller not working.

Hello all, this is my first post on this forum site. Recently somehow... The device manager showed that my Video Controller was not installed properly, but for a fact I know it was. I have been looking for the correct installation file to reinstall the driver, but I've had no luck. These are my specs.

Make.Toshiba
Type.Satellite
Model.M50X
Part #. PSM50C-MX500E

By the way, I have no anti virus running, (yea I know), As for anything else needed I really don't know, I do not mess around with my system configuration.
I came across this problem, trying to open a typical game called Maplestory. Error message said "failed in finding proper screen mode for Gr2D"

Thank you in advance.

Msg if you need more information.

Thanks

Thanks for the reply, I have tried that site, and located my model etc. But there is no "Video Controller" Download, the closest is "Toshiba Driver Controls." I have tried downloading this one, but it says it's already installed. I don't want to uninstall this. because I am not entirety sure to reinstall it.

By the way, thanks for the program.

If there are any other possible solutions feel free to hit me up
