Display properties missing

When restarting my PC my monitor wouldn't always start up again. I finally got fed up, took it in to a shop, video card was defective. I had it replaced with a Celestica Radeon 9200. They called me from the shop, said the computer was ready, but that the display was all messed up. I didn't think it'd be that big of a deal to fix, so I took it home. The resolution options are available as a tray icon so that was no problem. But, when I go into display properties, I have no tabs - no desktop, screensaver, bappearance, or settings - all I have is themes. Is this because my old video card messed up Windows (XP Pro)? Everything else seems to be running properly. No viruses, adware or spyware. Is there a registry edit to get these tabs back?

Sorry it took so long for me to reply to your post. Unfortunately I was in a car accident and I had to get everything sorted out. Anyway, I checked in the registry and I don't even have the entries that you've listed. I have Policies but nothing underneath it. I added them and then modify to what you've suggested and it still didn't give me my properties back. Any other suggestions?
