Hay guys. I'm trying to get my old computer up and running so's i can donate it to charity. It's really giving me problems though. The first is the most obvious - the display is messed up. I have vertical lines going down my screen of the wrong color. The number of lines and colors and thickness changes whenever the computer 'clicks over' to the next screen, you know what i mean. And when i try to install display drivers, the computer crashes and refuses to restart in anything other than safe mode. I even got the most updated drivers and it gives me the BSOD until i uninstall the drivers. Of course windows blames the crash on the card and/ or its drivers which would seem to make sense, but i was reading somewhere where that's not neccisarily the case. Anyway, i don't really want to put really much money into this, i was wondering if there are places that actually test and repair video cards, or if i should just get some cheapie to throw in there?
right now its running a GeForce 4 ti4200 AGP8x, manufactured by ASUS.
god this si so annoying.
