I had a savage 4 8mg AGP card in my computer for about 6 months. I overclock my computer (see the end) For the last few weeks, I've had one major problem with it. Whenever I booted up my computer, windows would not load properly. It would freeze before it loaded the desktop. Then, when I restarted the computer, it would boot perfectly, and I would not experience any problems.
Lately, like in the past 2 days, the desktop will not load at all. No matter how many times I restart, the computer will freeze while loading the desktop, or before loading it. I took out the AGP card and stuck in my old PCI 4 megger, and it now works perfectly. No multiple boots, nothing.
Anyway, I'm wondering if video cards just die gradually, instead of all of a sudden, no picture on your monitor. Also, could it be my AGP slot? I hope not.
I have a 533 celII o'ced to 880, which is an AGP bus of like 80 i think. I didn't overclock my savage 4 at all for extended periods of time. I've done it for an hour or two at the most, and that was a few months ago.
