First time poster. I've been following this site for a long time. My PC is on it's last legs, I know this. I've got a ood Video card, geoforce 3 ti 2000 and everyrhing else is old. 18gb HD, 192 mb Raam,win98, and P2 400, I'm upgrading as soon as my taxes come in.
My display problem is this ; my monitor often flickers and expands so that the left and right side get stretched around 25% I have to go into properties change the settings and when it asks if I like the settings I say no only if it doesn't stretch while I say yes or no. I've tried various resolutions to no avail. I'm running the latest deonator drivers and have tried 5 different drivers with no luck./ I used det destroyer wuth each install to make sure it was a clean install. I even reformatted the hard driveI have a acerview 77e 17 inch monitor- which isn't listed on acer's site so Imy moniutor is listed as plug and play. Is my monitor dying??
My cd rom willl not install anything. I can play cd's, When I insert a cd into the drive it doesn't show up also when I hit explore it saysd it isn't accesable but then shows me all the files on the cd. I tried going into system prperties but my cd rom drive doesnt show up at all as a device??? Any ideas? This first occured when I was trying to install Operation Flashpoint.
Does anyone have any ideas? or should I just wait for my new system in around a month or so?? Thanks
