I hadn't been able to play the Sims 2, and I figured out it was because my video card wasn't supported. So I went out and picked up a cheap GeForce FX 5200 ($50) and installed it in my computer. Well as soon as I turned my computer on, everything was normal. But I noticed the resolution was huge when it got to my desktop and when I went into Display Properties, it was the only resolution setting there. So I figured I'd install the video card drivers that came on the software CD. After that it prompted me to restart my computer, and when I did, everything seemed fine, up to the point where the Windows XP Welcome screen should appear. My monitor froze on a black screen, and didn't do anything else. I even tried restarting my computer, but the same issue occured. I went looking around online for information, and I found somewhere saying the same thing that it said in the troubleshooting part of the manual for the graphics card. Both said to download monitor drives online for the video card. Well I did, and still the same thing happens. Does anyone know what's going on here? By the way, I have my other video card still installed (right on the motherboard) and this new one obviously plugs into a PCI port.

I have a spare Television at home & a spare P4 CPU, with 1.70 GHz & 512MB RAM. I wanted to use my TV as the MONITOR & Purchased a Nvidia GeForce FX5200 Display card & installed the drivers & connected it to my Tv with the S-Video port. I Got the Display on the TV, The Display is Quite Clear & the Videos are even clear. Now my Problem is Everything which I see on the TV is in BLACK & WHITE. I cannot find the colour on the TV. My TV is an Indian Made which can understand both PAL & NTSC signals. It even has Auto Signal Detect, Which also I tried but couldnt get the colour. At Startup process till Windows Logo it comes in colour but after that it gets Black & White. I am Using Windows XP Professional SP2 a my operating system. I even formated my PC to no avail. Kindly Gurus please solve my puzzle. -Goyel P. Lotliker

-Goyel P. Lotliker Hi there, i was using the same card few years back. Didn't give me any problems. I have some questions. 1.) What make is your card .. Asus, XFX,.. ? 2.) Which cable are you using to connect to the TV, the one that came along or did you buy it seperately ? because this could be a problem related to the Cable. 3.) What driver version are you using ? Try installing the latest available drivers for the card.. Go to Nvidia.com

-reply by karan saharan I didn't understand your series of questions properly .  which fan is working ? 1.) mainboard's controller fan 2.) Graphic's card fan 3.) processor fan Is the Graphic's Card properly seated in the AGP slot ? and did you install the proper drivers ? Kindly check all the cables on the motherboard .. you might have accidentally removed one which OS are you using ? and pls give the exact configuration of your system (motherboard model, graphic's card make and model, cpu, etc.) cant guide you any further than this without the proper information

Monitor
a most neglected device. (9) Monitors remain the most neglected device when it comes to buy or upgrading. Most people only look
for fastest processor, harddisk space and Ram. However, one important aspect of pc performance often
gets completely overlooked, and that is the display. This should ideally be one of the more
important things for any computer user to consider. First, because the display, which depends both
on the monitor and graphics card, is one of the more expensive component that you buy- it makes up
about a quarter of the cost of your entire system. The monitor is a long term investme....
