Hi,

I logged onto my PC this morning and the entire screen was washed out. It looked as if the monitor contrast was turned all the way up. i checked out my LCD and it was properly tuned. The only thing that has it back to normal is scaling the hardware acceleration down to nothing. I'm running a crippled video card until I find a solution. Any help is greatly appreciated.

My Specs:
P4 1.6a
Asus P4B533
512MB PC2700 RAM
Gainward GF4 4200 128mb
nVidia 43.45 Drivers
Windows XP Pro

I did feel the back of the GF4 and it was extremely hot but the fan is running normally. I've never overclocked this card and have had it running exactly the same for over a year.

Thanks.
