Its an Nvidia card, I got the latest driver at their website. Anyway it happened on two separate vid cards, although they were both the same brand and used the same driver as it turned out. Wish I could suss out the connection between when the res goes to hell and the bad reboot.

Not yet. We are celebrating Thanksgiving on Saturday and things are a bit hectic around here just now, a dozen adults and various age kids coming.

Hi Jim! Just signed my 94th bank account!

Overdrawn in 93 but borrowed 2M for 92nd. Took out 2,1M at the same time.

Got a letter from manager of 92nd account yesterday.

He wrote, "Congratulations Mike, I see you were in credit for approximatley 13 seconds on the 24th of Nov 2007. Well done!"

You just have to keep hopping from bank to bank in timely fashion! If you are lucky you will leave a paper trail 10 years long and they will never find you, while you are soaking up rays in Tahiti๐Ÿ™‚

I rcently held my hard drive out the window and was going to toss it. I put it back and plugged it back in and it's been running better.

Nice, just showing it who's boss! The only thing is, you have to be prepared to back up your threats, otherwise the thing will catch on and know you are only bluffing๐Ÿ™‚

Try this -
Your graphics driver is probably interlaced? This brings the RGB level towards the max and the dub goes all to hell - check if you've got the 82815 chipset. If this is the case then it's more likely to be an adapter problem than a driver (The DAC usually renders the bios 'unobtainable' which is a bore).

Switch the resolution to the lowest setting - depth as well as res. and pull the RGB levels as high as you can get them. Then reboot and reset back to the original settings.
I usually find Win32 systems to be less than responsive and this takes a complete power cycle before the settings 'take'.
good luck.
