Graphics Issues!
« on: October 17, 2006, 09:55:04 am »
Ok, my friend (Bocaj) has alot of trouble with his graphics. When he logs in the whole screen is green or blue and his Video card is more then the system reqs. Also, his RAM is 512MB, has more than 500MB free space and meets all other reqs., so, any suggestions?

Make sure his drivers for his card are up to date, as a starting point.

Actually, you didn't.  Which is why I suggested it.

Have him run a dxdiag and take a snapshot of what the display tab looks like for us.

Right-click anywhere on your desktop, click on "Properties," then go to the "Settings" tab and look under "Display." You should see something that looks like "[monitor] on [card]." For example I see:



Go to your card manufacturer's website and download the most recent drivers for your card type and OS.

For NVidia, visit www.nvidia.com
For ATI, visit www.ati.com
For anything else, use www.Google.com to find the correct manufacturer address.

If you have Windows XP, download the driver here:
http://uk.download.nvidia.com/Windows/91.47/91.47_forceware_winxp2k_international_whql.exe

And Karyuu, if that is your screen up there, if have the same one, a Samsung SyncMaster 730BF.
You know, great minds think alike ;)
