GeForce 4 TI problems

[Reverend]

After installing the card into my AGP slot, connecting my monitor, and booting up the screen is all kinds of funky. I can see the boot screen, but it's like.. totally FUBARed. Lots of .. err .. interference? .. and what not. Is this card on the verge of dying, or....??

[Edit] In a way, it looks kinda like the connectors are dirty. Like the old NES consoles.. for those that remember that. ~l~

 

[Reverend]

Hmmm. ~bump~

As an addendum.. no, this isn't a new card. I didn't just buy it the other day, or anything. It was given to me by a friend who got a newer card.

Well... okay then. Uhh...

did u overclock it or anything like that, cuz if you overclock it to high it can really mess up your comp. maybe the card is just old, cuz they came out like 5 years ago.

This sounds quite likely. It's never been overclocked. Ah well.
