Intel 82810 Graphics Driver

[jowolf359]

I have a question, I have the Intel 82810 Graphics Controller on my HP Pavilion 512n. I am getting lines that run up and down through the monitor every now and then. It is an intermittent problem, but when I install the proper driver/controller, it asks if i want to install an old version over a new version.

The graphics is integrated into the motherboard. Do I need to add a graphics card to solve this problem, or what? I cannot afford to buy or build a new system right now, no job to pay for it. I also do not like 64bit OS's that seems to be the only ones I can find already installed. I have tried to install some old graphics cards with no success. I have never seen anything like this before. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Doesn't sound like a driver issue.  If the monitor is a CRT, that could be the problem.  You might be able to find a CRT monitor for free.  In your situation, I would spend no money & learn to live with what I have.

I have tried other CRT monitors, and they do the same thing. Like I said, I have never seen anything like this before. I don't want to short myself on a bill and buy a LED monitor if a PCI card will work.

First of all, see, if same thing happens in safe mode.
If it does, then, most likely, you have video chip problem.
If it doesn't, then, most likely, you have a driver problem.

It may be overheating as well.

What brand and model of the computer is it?

HP Pavilion 512n is the make and model. I will have to try that about Safe Mode and see. I know it does it with other monitors I have here.

I am thinking that I may need to buy a reconditioned motherboard of the same brand and chipset if it is the video chip.

Today I noticed that in Device Manager there are three drivers listed, I set it to the one from Microsoft and so far the problem has not shown up.

I wouldn't recommend reconditioned for a MBoard...price out a new replacement instead.
