I'm not looking to replace the video card just yet (you're right though, it's PCIe x16), just find as basic of one as I could to see if it has the same problems. But I couldn't find squat as far as video cards are concerned at the stores I used to. I did find a few at one store ($70 - $270), but I just want basic, simple video card (something that supports both 640x480 [i]and[/i] 800x600 :p ... And PCI because my other old tower doesn't have PCIe slots... Both old machines I have that I test hardware with and whatnot have AGP cards :(, but they have PCI slots as well... Although thinking about it now, I don't remember if I had problems trying to get a PCI video card to work in one of them before... Oh well, another problem for another day). I found one online for $9 though, so I have something to test with when I need it. Good idea on removing the NVidia drivers completely. I'll give that a shot this afternoon or tomorrow. Can't test the card in another PC (neither old tower I have has the PCIe slots), but I do want to rule out the video card for sure before trying to swap MBs. I'm going to cross my fingers that it doesn't fry any video card I put in there, but that's why I wanted a $9 video card to test it with :) Thanks WH, a couple more thinsg to test and cross off the list. We'll see how it goes. LF -- Any sufficiently advanced bug is indistinguishable from a feature. Loading...
