ARGH FUCK!!!!

 

 

alrite...so i installed the drivers that you linked my casek. everything seemed to be going good. i played DOD today and it went flawless. i did not epxeriance any moniter blackout. but then i try and play another game on the computer and as soon as the game loads it crashes. theres an obvious connection between playing games teh the moniter blacking out. WHAT TEH FUCK IS THIS!!!!!!!!! it cant even just sit at the desktop, with no applications running, without blacking out on me. the moniter is still on but the screen is blank. turn off the moniter, turnit back on, and it regains picture for 2 seconds.

 

WHAT IS THIS!!!?!?!??!?!?!? i think im gonna change the graphics card first and see what happens

 

 

so to install new ATI card, i have to delete the existing ATI using add/remove? then open up computer and stick it in, taking the old one out? a more detailed walkthrough would help me out....

ok, damn...first:

 

what are your properties like? screensaver? power save mode?

 

second: yes, uninstall your drivers, turn off pc, pull card out, insert new card,

turn pc on, install drivers (i'd go with those omega drivers again)

then test. now here's one thing, these games you're trying to play, have they played before?

what changed since you last played them?

 

i can't play some of the newer games because of my graphics card, but i can play most.

nothing different. i left my computer on day and came back to the screen being entirely black' date=' but the moniter still on. at first it seemed that it would crash randomly, but now the crashes coincide entirely with trying to load a game.[/quote']

 

 

and you said you've downloaded alot of this software mainter and i have suggested

for cleaning up computers?

 

try tuneup utilities 2006

 

can find it on torrentspy.com

 

run it, use all those features it has.

 

i'm particularly mentioning this because of the excellent regiostry repair features it has.
