    Hi, im trying to view pictures (In windows photo gallery) i have taken from my memory card it lets me view the first few then the screen goes all weird with black and white lines then the screen goes black and i have to reboot whole computer!! Its now coming up at the bottom Display driver not working properly and it was recovered? Its also happening when im trying to view a video file using media player.

    the computers running on vista and the graphics card is a Radeon x800 gto i did think this was the problem but i have updated the drivers and still no luck!

    Processor; Intel (R) Pentium (R)4 Cpu 3.40GHz
    Ram - 2.00GB

    Cdrive is 32.2GB and 11.4 GB is free

    Any help would be much appreicated!

    thanks

      Where did you update the drivers from ? ?
      Have you tried the onboard video to see if it exhibits the same behaviour ? ?

      This will tell you whether it's the card's fault or not...
