My computer: http://www.anandtech.com/mysystemrig.aspx?rigid=30273
Today I was playing Counter Strike Source and was seeing some graphic errors, like artifacting etc. The game locked up and I restarted.
When the computer POSTs green lines of uneven dots run vertically across the screen and there are also numerous other errors such as the wrong characters being displayed and characters repeating more times than they should.
Windows XP boots normally at first, however, it never gets to the blue log in screen. After a few seconds, at about the point it would ordinarily go to the log in screen the monitor goes blank , the power light on the monitor blinking, like it is not getting any signal. The computer is still on and the hard drive access light goes on and off for few more seconds and then it is silent.
Windows does boot in safe mode, which is how I am able to post this , however, that is about it. After uninstalling and reinstalling the graphics driver, there is no difference.
Thanks in advance for any help.
