    I'm an IT guy and this happened on my Dell laptop from time to time and also several desktops (our company uses Dell primarily). The problem most likely is that you are probably using a Windows XP driver in Windows 7. This is what was happening to our computers. Here's how to fix it:

    1)Use the express service code located on a white sticker somewhere on your machine usually the back and enter it on the Dell support website to pull up that particular computer... Note: you can also manually input the model number but that does not always have the same hardware configuration even though it's one model
    -Go to the software downloads section, Select Windows 7, find the driver and install.

    2)Install and/or run driver in compatibility mode - if you can only find the Windows XP version of the driver, right click the install>choose properties>compatibility tab>choose Windows XP

    I'm going from memory but I hope that helps.

    Please post the model numbers or service tag numbers or the Hardware ID's of the VGA on these machines and I can advise the proper drivers to install. There could be several other reasons as to why this happens, virus for one, more common with network drivers though.

    Corruption due to hard drive failure, improper system configuration, improper access control etc.

    The simplest answer though is having the wrong driver and is worth testing first.

    Machine info would be greatly appreciated.

    Don't want to jump to conclusions here, but it almost sounds like the video card may be dying. I know that's pretty far-fetched since this is happening on multiple machines, but recently my company deployed 20 new PCs to one of our clients, and they all got OS not found errors when booting up. Come to find out that that batch of PCs were all manufactured at the same time with faulty motherboards, so it is possible that the video cards are just toast. Are they on-board video cards or they PCI?
