Geforce FX 5200 128MB Blue Screen (White is blue)
 
Has anyone had this problem?? I shut down. Next time I booted, I have
no white on my screen. Where it is supposed to be white, it is a pale
bright blue.

Any Suggestions??

Thanks in advance

Had the same issue with previous cards... are you on an LCD monitor?



If so, use the DVIVGA adapter that came with your card, it should
clear up this issue.




I don't know why, but directly connecting to VGA causes a fluctuation
in voltage for LCD monitors. Adding an adapter seems to clear this
issue up.


I can't pinpoint whether it's the card or the monitor, though I'm
putting my money on the card.

Tightened it and everything is fine!
