I have a new nVidia 7600 card, it works great and everything, but after a while if I try to play something graphic-intensive (like warcraft 3 or wow) it starts waving the screen like a flag in the wind, going blurry, shifting from side to side and all that. A restart of the computer always fixes it, but I was wondering if the card is defective, or what?

Is there a setting I need to change? I have updated the drivers from the cd, and have direct x 9.0c.

It also blanks out for a second then starts up again, which is odd. Impossible to play games for 3 hours or so or leave the computer on that time without the display going wonko whenever I play games.

I've had an AGP GeForce Ti4200 for a long time, which is pretty good... But now I bought an AGP GeForce 7300 which runs on 128mb. As far as I know, both of them are 128mb and my computer has enough to run it perfectly.

Maybe I did something wrong with the drivers, 'cause I don't think I uninstalled them properly... But when I did and put the new card in, all the start-up text came up in gibberish and there were scanlines and garbage pixels everywhere-- even though it was all functioning.

I'm gonna try it again, but what is causing this? Is this familiar? I want to know if there's something other than the drivers making this happen...

Circuit City and Radio Shack told me to go online. But there is nothing I can find to help me. The Line in looks almost like the female connector to a mouse/keyboard- but it goes into the wall for power supply. Helpful replies please.

My old computer surged and the power supply and the motherboard went. everything else is still in good condition. I bought a new computer that has vista on it. (my old pc had XP) I tried dropping the graphics card from my old pc into the new one, its an ATI Radeon 9200. All the drivers for it on the internet are for XP and when I try putting the driver CD in, it gets to the installation and I get an error message

"Setup was unable to find components that can be installed on your current hardware or software configuration. Please make sure you have the required hardware or software."

any ideas?

I'll start up by stating the situation.
On a new (3 month old) packard bell imedia 5020 i had two partitions. The first one being ubuntu feisty , the second one being vista home premium. I loved both. Because i screwed up ubuntu I booted into vista. Installed acronis boot manager, formatted the first partion to ntfs and rebooted. Grub bootmanager gave me error 22 (logical, since I deleted ubuntu ) I usually use super grub disk to repair windows mbr. However i was unable to boot any cd's (yes the bios was set up to boot from cd and i used f8 and choose cd to boot more than once). No cd's would boot (including ubuntu feisty, linux mint cassandra, plos2007, gparted live cd, super grub disk, xp).
I then installed another cd-rom from an old computer. This time instead of ignoring the cd and going straight to the hard drive thus giving grub error 22), the screen remains black. When i pull out the cd, the hard drive loads and gives the grub error.
... more to come

pentium d, 1 gig mem, sapphire radeon 1650.....

its a gaming machine but the games don't work (everything else does-so far). I've updated the video and sound cards, and windows. I simply don't know what else I could do. Games aren't *that* important to me, but Second Life is, as I am a content creator there.
Things like Half Life: Lost Coast and SLife crash with no error message (save a send crash report), and they crash randomly, between 0-and 15 minutes of game use- usually crashes within the first 5. Any clues?
