Even after changing video cards i seem to have what the best i can discribe
as screen coruption at least 2 to 3 times a day. every open item on the task bar become unreadable garbage, all piled on top of each other by the windows logo button. If i press the windows logo button on the taskbar i can see the no items on the start menu but can see the out line of the start menu areo stye. As i mentioned i have changed graphics cards from Nvidia to ATI thinking it would fix the horible problems but it has not. System hardware Mainboard MSI K8N NEO4 AMD x64 dual core 2.2Ghz 1.5 gigs of memory ati x1550 with 512 memory segate sata 250 gig hdd Windows Vista Enterprise. Any suggestions? Next time this happens it will printscreen it and post it Thanks. |

Vista_Enterprise_User,
Did you download and install the most recent Vista ATI graphics card drivers for your video card? If not, you should do that. -- freddy "Vista_enterprise_User" wrote: Even after changing video cards i seem to have what the best i can discribe as screen coruption at least 2 to 3 times a day. every open item on the task bar become unreadable garbage, all piled on top of each other by the windows logo button.
