got my new computer the other day, when i switched it on vert lines appered, pressing del for the bios only brought up vert lines of other colours.
reseting the bios fixed this.
ive installed win xp pro sp2 and the supplied display drivers but i cannot install any version of directx(main big problem). when i try installing directx it says all the right stuff but nothing is installed. also when using the supplied display drivers setting the resolution above 1024x768 ie 1280x1024 makes the desktop huge without fitting it to the monitor. i know the monitor is capable because with the drivers uninstalled changeing the resolution works fine.
are there any compatability issues with the sempron and dx? or could these problems have anything to do with the origional problem.
specs.
amd sempron 3100+
asus k8smx mobo
auriga 19" lcd
512 ram
integrated 64 mb video
eventually ill chuck in a real video card will this fix my problem?
any help on fixing this will be appeciated.
