So I recently bought a new video card, a Sapphire Radeon 9600XT 256MB AGP. I need help cause i've been having a few problems with it, and this is usually a pretty helpful place.
Anyways, here are some of the symptoms; flashing when scrolling in internet, 3d games freeze/lag, after playing 3d games for a while the signal from the video card just stops being sent and the moniter goes all dark.
Here's what i've tried to do; made sure it was installed correctly, cleaned out all the dust inside my computer, installed various drivers from ATI website, and new drivers for my motherboard.
Here are some of my computer stats (from dxdiag)
Operating System: Windows XP Home Edition (5.1, Build 2600) Service Pack 2 (2600.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519)
System Model: Aspire T135
BIOS: Award Modular BIOS v6.00PG
Processor: AMD Sempron(tm) Processor 3100+, MMX, 3DNow, ~1.8GHz
Memory: 512MB RAM
Page File: 413MB used, 1090MB available
DirectX Version: DirectX 9.0c (4.09.0000.0904)
I don't know what's wrong... So any help would be greatly appreciated.
