It's my friend's computer, 4 months old. After 2 months those purple lines started to showing up randomly 2 or 3 times in a day, I took the computer to service, what he said to me that computer freezees and that he needs to reset it I suspected that RAM is bad, I took and tested RAM and it didnt passed the memtest, RAM was replaced in the warranty wit a new one, after I replaced it I tested computer 4 days at my place with various games and testing programs and it runs normally and I gave it back to him, after 2 days he phones me that pink lines are back?!?
OK I took the comp again to service tested it, flashed MBO BIOS, reinstalled Windows 7 all up to date drivers, testing and testing 3 more days everything OK, I back the comp to him again and guess what after 2 day purple lines! Isd it possible maybe that his monitor is bad? he has an old CRT 17" Samsung monitor... Then i said him to install windows XP and he did, computer was working fine for 6 days, but yesterday purple lines showed on XP as well while he was surfing the internet, but showed after 7 days?!?!? Dont know what to do computer runs fine at my place and pass all tests, i suspect on his monitor... Any ideas?
Computer is Intel Pentium Dual-Core E5300, Apacer 2GB DDR2 800, HDD Western Digital 500AAKS, PSU MS 550W (it came with Case MS Apollon 550), VGA Gigabyte GeForce 9800GT, MBO Gigaybte G41-ES3G...
