Cry Need Help with my graphic card driver!!!!!

Hello everybody
my nvidia driver does make my minotor display scrumbled and pixel crazy...
A while ago i connected an SV cable to my graphic card and now my system seems to become unstable...I don't know how to resolve this problem, i try system restore, unistal the driver and install it again, i also went on the nvidia web to find fixes...i dowloaded some but with no effect...i am using the default vanilla driver, obviously i cannot play my favourite games and enjoy all the 3D fun stuff i love!!! Is anyboy have any wordsof wisdom? I appreciate it...Thanks i a lot, really disperate....

Re: Need Help with my graphic card driver!!!!!

in the device manager uninstall the video card
reboot tapping f8 and choose vga mode
when windows finishes rebooting
disable a/virus
install your drivers
reboot the computer


what are you running
video card
cpu
m/board
ram
power supply
brand
wattage

check the listings in the bios for voltages and temperatures and post them

Re: Need Help with my graphic card driver!!!!!

try a quality 550w psu in it

check the insides are clear of dust

ask a friend to check your card in their computer to see if it is the card
