If you did a true clean install - format and start over - did you then also
install all the drivers for your hardware? If not, that's your next step.
See below for general drivers information. If you did, or can't run any of
the driver installation programs, you may have hardware failure. There is
no way for me to tell since you provided no information about your computer
or its recent history. See these links for what details to include in your
next post if you want more focused help.

Drivers:

Never get drivers from Windows Update. Get them from:

1. The device mftr.'s website; OR
2. The motherboard mftr.'s website if hardware is onboard; OR
3. The OEM's website for your specific machine if you have an OEM computer
(HP, Dell, Sony, etc.).

Read the installation instructions on the website where you get the drivers.

To find out what hardware is in your computer:

1. Read any documentation you got when you bought the computer.
2. If the computer is OEM, go to the OEM's website for your specific model
machine and look at the specs (you'll be there to get the drivers anyway)
3. Download, install and run a free system inventory program like Belarc
Advisor or System Information for Windows.
