i had my computer repaired and my video card was stolen by the technician. since then, i noticed that my monitor has gotten blurred. is it because the default video card on my mother board (which remained intact) does not suffice? or is it my monitor that's having problems?

right click the desktop click on properties
click on settings tab now look at the
color quality box if it says 16(bit) colors
click on the tab next to that and set it you can go to 256 ..color or 32 bit color if you can set it on to the highest one then click apply & ok
you may need to restart your pc when this is done .. if you cant get it to set to a better color then you need to install the Graphics Card drivers from the Graphics Card driver cd .. and report the technician to his boss if he has one if not report it to the law

First, file charges against the technician and his company. Make sure that the company returns or replaces the card.
Second, in the short term, to clear up you monitor, go into your control panel and reconfigure your display settings to use the default video card. If your default card is not capable of displaying with your monitor, then you might use an older monitor until the police and the repair company resolve your theft issue.

Blurred doesn't sound like a video card problem. If it was "digitally" erroring, meaning lag, color distortion then it could be your video card. But blurry sounds like it could be a resolution problem. Check the Control Panel>Display and see what the resolution is set at as well as the refresh rate.

it could be a couple of things
1. your monitor is going bad. You can rule this out by plugging your monitor into another pc if you have an extra
2. You are you are using the wrong video driver for your onboard video card
3. Resolution - right click on your desktop and go to properties. You can change your resolution there.

i'm somewhat constructive that card might want to carry out maximum initiatives. To be common i assumed you've gotten picked something dodgy. That card is truly good, no longer extremely a 9800gtx (lol) inspite of the undeniable fact that it truly is amazingly fee-valuable. If in the destiny you opt on to SLI it then it's going to be even more effective efficient (meaning having 2 of them operating in the single pc). merely make constructive your motherboard has the right PCI-E slot and verify you've a sufficient power provide.

Probably you are not using the native resolution for that card. Try switching between the various resolutions and refresh rates and see if you get something a little clearer...
