I have been having issues with my graphics recently. I have no clue what is causing it. Here is what is happening:
- Every time i try and use direct 3d open GL or software mode on applications they work for a short while then randomly blue screen. The cause is nv4_disp.dll and a infinite loop error. Otherwise the computer works just fine.
-If i unistnall all the drivers using Driver Sweeper then the above issue is fixed, however i have to run the programs without using the graphics card.
- Every now and then i will get white lines and bars covering my monitor. There is also snow and general graphics issues as if a graphics card has failed. However this is only temporary. It does not cover the entire screen, it just distorts a litle you can still see enough to be able to use it. (Its like looking at the screen a monitor through white bars) If i go to my computer later on in the day it starts up without this issue. If i go to device manager when this issue occurs it says "Error 10 Device could not start"
- When the graphics error happens its everywhere. Its on startup in the BIOS screen in Safe Mode In XP etc. Uninstalling the graphics card does not make it go away. Neither does disabling it. Uninstalling the drivers for the card does nothing either.
I installed 3dsMax 2011 and Maya 2011 onto my computer about the time this started happening i don't know if that is whats causing this or not. My graphics card is a 8800GT. I have XP Media Center Edition and a Dual Core Processor and 4GB of RAM.
Becasue my card works on and off im not sure if it is starting to fail or if its some freak driver problem. What is the most likely cause of this issue?
