    What happened in my VGA card??!
    « on: January 23, 2010, 10:51:50 PM »
    I'm using ASUS Nvdia gforce 8500GT silent magic series. I think my VGA card had failured. An unexpected inifinte loop error come out after the XP window loading scene. I gotta run save mode only i can reach into window. I did removed the VGA card driver to let it run normal. Everytime I reinstal the VGA driver halfway would come out such weird figure. Does anyone knows what happened with my VGA card??? The hardware had spoilt or not compatible driver installed???


    I had uploaded the weird figure which appear during the installation of driver.

      Definitely sounds and looks like your card is faulty, sorry.
      If possible, try the card in another machine to confirm the fault.

        I found that my VGA card drive had spoilt....
        I discharged it from the board and run with onboard display drive for temporary.

        I think my VGA card not damaged severely. I not always use 3D program or play massive graphical game. Really not worth for my Nvdia 8500GT spoilt...
        I just bought it 2 years ago.

        Is there any hope for me to repair it???

          If it's only 2 years old it should still be within warranty so you could get a free replacement.
          If not then I would stick with onboard graphics or buy a new card.
          Hope this helps :)
