hmm... my monitor now has horizontal shading across it depending on the colors it is supposed to put out. all the color is dark and any color on top of a white background has dark shades horizontally on each side of it... whats going on?? I have an original Geforce256 32mb and a dell(trinitron) monitor. my first reaction was since our power went out last night there must of been a surge and it must've damaged my monitor, although everything else hooked into my surge protector* is fine. so i plugged this monitor into my old computer (pentium133 with an S3 Trio64V onboard graphics *hehe) and the picture was fine. So now i think its my graphics card.... and new drivers did nothing....


please help!

thanks,
mski
 
Swap the video card in your old system to the problem system.

How about the agp drivers from intel or via whoever made your chipset?
