Hey

I have recently installed a Geforce 9800GT series graphics card, now my display seems strangely distorted.....almost like watching a very old TV. I Have tryed lower resolutions settings and updated my drivers but still no luck!

Can anyone help its hurting my eyes? lol

Thanks

Did you install the nvidia graphics software? If not, do so.

Yes, the drivers you need those for it to work. Also make sure you have plenty of air flow and make sure your PSU gives your card enough power.
