vidcard still acting up sometimes

Hi there, I did a Spybot, AVG and AD Aware scan today and it was clean. WOW.

I have a problem when I click Start-Windows Update. The system is checking if I have the latest updates. Then I am asked if I want to do a CUSTOM or EXPRESS check. I have tried both and I get an error message "Files required to use Windows Update are no longer registered or installed on your computer"-to continue ... This was happening while I was posting to you earlier also. I thought it was part of the virus.

My computer sys is 4 yrs old with the old type of Ram with 384MB. I am going to replace the system soon but I can't afford it right now. So I have been slowly replacing things when they breakdown. I have made sure with the computer store that they will work well with the new system. I put a new dvd writer/rom and hardrive(only 30 gigs) in. I only use my computer for internet and minimal Word documents. No games.

Should I replace the Video card and what would you recommend? The blurriness happens if I try to scroll real fast down a post or page only.


A happy TJ
