[RESOLVED] Can't figure out if I should replace the motherboard or my video card.
Hi everyone, I'm back with another fun computer problem.
I'm not sure if I should replace the video card or the motherboard, I had to reinstall Windows XP recently because the registry was corrupted and the main hard disk kept disappearing, I got it all set up today and I've noticed a recurring problem. A few days ago and today I notice that when I restart/boot the computer the screen is all scrambled from the bootup screens then into windows, today I faced the same thing but when It got into windows it looked fine until I clicked the start menu then I noticed that that looked odd too, it was kind of transparent. The problem is pretty intermittent, I've had other problems such as, when I looked in the system logs I noticed that it said something about 5 errors from the dvd drive and 2 days before that there were quite a few page faults from the 2nd partition on the main HD. Again intermittent errors, I'm checking the ram right now, but overall I have no clue what's broken?
