Computer showing colours

[akshayt]

Hi

I have a 300watts ps and a 128mb radeon 9800pro ati orignal from many weeks and months now.

Sometimes now it the computer shows colours,
the boot screen of win xp and win 98 changed colour ,pink or purple for a few seconds and got ok again.
Changing colours has happened earlier.

Also,when i install omega after a few days the games start showing artifacts.

What can i do?

As far as the funny colors - check to make sure the Monitor.gfx card cable is in there good 'n tight.

I experienced the "funny colors" and found the cause in my case to be a loose cable.

You might also wanna check how many amps you PSU has on the 12v rail. Unless its a very good 300watt PSU, you may need a stronger PSU to push that card.
