800x600 Screen Resolution Grayed Out [HELP]

Hello, I have an Eee PC, I'm not very good with computers so I’ll just give a few details, I’m on Windows 7.
So actually, before I was on Windows 7, I had a display that suited me, I don't know the number but here's a little screenshot of my PC with Vista, before it was on Windows 7:

And then, as soon as I installed Windows 7:

Quite a change in screen resolution, right? I don't remember the resolution of the old screenshot, the one from Vista, but there's quite a change.
There you go, and what I want is to go back to the old resolution, to Vista as well if possible, because the "800x600" is grayed out:

There you go, PLEASE I want to go back to the old resolution! =(

    Don't worry ^^.

    When you're on the link, click on "Start detection"
    Install the corresponding plugin for your computer.
    Then restart the detection, you will be redirected to a page where there will be Drivers highlighted in blue.
    Make sure not to take the beta ones.
    Download the drivers highlighted in blue, except for the beta ones.
    Then install and restart your computer.

    The only solution otherwise is to perform a system restore.

    How do I install the drivers? Sorry, you might think I'm mocking you, but I don't know how to update the drivers so that my resolution goes back to what it was before :S
    I installed the software from your link, and I see that it's "Preferences"
    But as soon as I open Preferences, I don't know what to do; I'm stuck. Can you please help me? Where should I click? As I said, I'm not very good with computers.

    How do I uninstall the configuration I just made, as you said?
    And if I uninstall the configuration, what will happen? Will I lose my screen? ^^

    Restart the computer.

    I'm not sure if this will work.

    "The drivers will be updated ^^"

    Reset the base resolution or see later on the desktop, right-click, display, etc.

    Uh, I have a little problem, I'm installing this:

    https://www.touslesdrivers.com/index.php?v_page=23&v_code=28558

    But I can't, I saved it in my documents, I click on it, I run it, but there’s no program to open this thing ^^ I have to choose a program, and to avoid messing it up, I'm asking you which one to choose, Winrar?

    Open it in Google Chrome, then save it instead of executing the file directly.

    Right-click display, is there not a second screen or can't you even change the resolution?

    Uh, are you talking about where you can change with the codes "800x600" etc.?
    Or where it says "Small - 100%" etc.?
    Well, in Display, I only have "Small - 100% (Default)" and "Medium - 125%"

    I have the smallest one but it’s still big -_-

    First, I install Google Chrome to install the exe, and the latest one, then I restart. If there's still no 1024x1280, well, it's not a big deal :S =(

    Oh yeah, good idea, but first I'm going to finish my installations. Can I cancel and restart and do the system restore? It won't do any harm if I do that, right?
