When Easy recover 2 GUI load.. above thing happened. I retried BUT NO LUCK.

After 1DAY I tried this time computer is working..XP is working..BUT DISPLAY is BLACK AND WHITE. I went to bios settings. BIOS settings page is also BLACK AND WHITE.

After 2hours, I switched on computer before call you. BUT computer works as normal. DISPLAY is NORMAL again.

I worked fine for 2weeks.

One day I installed HELO 1. when I tried to play, Above thing happened again. (After 2 weeks) during past two weeks, I don't play any 3D game.

I restarted computer and re launched game. It now it has safe mode (on game) option available. I choose safe mode. Then Game works fine and I played it for 4 hours.

After one day I started game again. BUT that ISSUE occured agained. after restarting computer I choose safe mode. (On game) It works fine.

I installed MS Train simulator (bit old game as HELO 1)
BUT that ISSUE occurs (some time, But I can play it)

sounds to me like the onboard graphics is not healthy

you could either RMA the board back to gigabyte if its less than 3 years old or install a video card and upgrade the power supply

speaking of power supply; what is the make and model of your power supply ????

Power supply is Murcury. 250W max.
It has some issue in the back and now It's working.
The issue is...
when I press power button on my computer, power LED light for about 50msecs. and also fans are starting for 50msecs.(half sec.) then all dead.
I opened power supply and cleaned it. then it works well.
But the point is, is my power supply has enough power (250W max...) when game started?

Hopefully you got a quality brand so the problem won't reoccur in the near future.
