Download the latest driver, delete the video card out of device manager, reboot, reinstall.

Then send pics of hot aunt.

RE: Helpsomeone  

hmmm, 32 bit is fine, its standard, you've either got 16 or 32 bit, 16 is the crappy one. 100 dots thing? the problem with you not being there is the deion you're giving is abit vague, the display's full?

this is the link to the driver you'd need to download if she has windows xp:

driver

thats if there's a driver problem, and you've given the right model gfx card.

just uninstall the display adapter by right clicking the desktop and clicking properties, goto settings, then advanced, then under adapter, choose properties, and under driver should be uninstall.

but first, make sure the screen resolution is set properly before un-installing.

RE: Helpsomeone  

could be something as simple as the monitor plug has slipped slightly and isnt plugged in securely.

before anyone says "no wai!" its happend to me, if one of the pins concerning a colour channel isnt connecting properly you'll lose that channel, i had a lovely greenish tinted screen until i fixed the plug back in.

could be the monitors on the way out as well, could be a million different things, but always start with the most simple and work your way through the bits you know you can handle.

plugs/sockets connections
re-install software/drivers
check hardware (usually with someone else's machine as a test bed)

1) Its the internet. Really not serious business.

2) He can take a joke. Lighten up a bit, maybe you should learn what humour is too.

If it's running in 32 bit color and loos like crap, most likely the card is shot! Sounds to me to be running in 16 colors or something (256 colors albeit horrible not THAT bad). Might be time for new video!

You could check and see if windows sees it correctly. If it does see it, I would say it is shot (even with drivers no one makes one for 16/256 colors in yeaaaaaars).

RE: Helpsomeone  

bowsaway has a point. Might be time to through $50 at it to get a new video card. Also look to see if the fan stopped spinning. Those old cards will get gunked up and the fan will stop, then the card burns up.


To others that can't take a joke: I deeply appologize that your parents did not love you. But this is the internet. Grats.
