FX-5200 hell
Hi
I have a fairly new Dell Dimension 4550 (P-4 2.4 GHZ) running XP, and I decided that I needed a 128 MB video card, so I replaced the Geoforce MX- 420 that came with the machine with an FX-5200 (both AGP). No problem at first, I used the driver from the included CD, and it worked fine. A few days later, I power up, and the display is screwed up, multiple images, unreadable text etc, even during the POST. I can't troubleshoot it in Windows because I can't see what I'm doing. I called Nvidia tech support, and got the expected "get the latest driver" speech. It didn't help. If I use the old card, everything is great, and I don't have another machine to test the new card in. Nvidia said to return the card, as I figured they would. Can anyone help? Has anyone seen this before? Thanks. jb |
