more information about your graphic card, the drivers you're using would be helpful.
had this problem earlier, starting setup, selecting prefered display settings again & saving changes fixed problem..
if you're starting another application or use ALT + Tab to view another app, this might cause the "failed.." error too. .

Also when i try to open Intel Graphics Technology it says "The driver for this control panel applet is not currently running or is not available" im wondering if this is a problem.

I have the same problem but with different card. I think its because of my onboard card(NVIDIA GeForce 2 Integrated GPU 32mb), but I upgraded awhle back to NVIDIA GeFore 5200 12mb.
