I was having major problems with computer due to most likely bad partition or MBR.
Bought new hard drive, did a fresh install of Windows XP, things were working fine until a few days later, computer starts flashing, then there are artifacts around things like the mouse cursor, it's unresponsive, then blue screen of death.
I loaded the most up to date driver from the NVidia website (I have a GeForce 8500 NT).
Can't find much on this problem out there, some have suggested overheating, etc. Can anybody help diagnose? Willing to try anything including buy a new video card if need be.
I have the computer apart and fans seem to be running OK, blew out the dust a while back.
