confusing graphics card issue?

"it is the graphics card that is the problem" ? You have video output, therefore it isn't the graphics card.

If it won't boot properly to Windows, then there is a conflict somewhere with your software. In safe mode, try updating Windows and see if that doesn't "fix" the problem.

That actually sounds like the resolution that is set on the computer is out of sync for the monitor. Are you using a CRT or an LCD? And if its an LCD and its higher than 59/60Mhz, there thats the issue.You're going to have to boot into safe mode, remove the video driver and restart into normal mode and let windows install the generic driver and will reset your refresh rate / resolution. This is what is seems like to me.

Good Luck

Get the main recent nvidia motive force equipment. Unplug and finished reinstall the cardboard. (try this universal) determine the nvidia application is desperate to apply application or video games image settings in basic terms. 60c is an entire load tempature for my amd6970, and one hundred or 120c may be catastrophic. So yeah i'm gonna say it somewhat is overheating. this might positively decelerate overall performance. there is likewise an particularly tiny risk which you shorted something interior the potential glitch yet that has got here approximately to me in the previous the place the computer might nonetheless be on and that i never had a topic.

did you download the nvidia driver while using a crt screen as this causes conllict..if so uninstall and if you have a tft flatscreen handy try and re-download it for the right Hz,as it's nvidia's download site default.good luck.
