Video card just about to die, i think

[IH8PunkRok]

alright heres wut happened, i was bored the other day and wanted to play a game. now the only game i have on my computer is gutterball 2 3d (really good game)
now i have played that game 1000's of times b4 but this time it became all glitchy and caused my computer to restart. it came back up and said windows encountered a serious error blah blah blah. i decided to send an error report to microsoft and it said to change the video settings to as low as possible which i did.
Now wut happens is it starts up and the picture glitches any time i move the mouse. eventually it becomes less frequent and happens only a couple times.
so do u think its gonna die or wut?
(i havent been on here in a while so hows it goin?)

i was shopping on newegg for a new video card and my comp restarted when i clicked on a link for nvidia cards (how ironic)
so sumthin is definately screwed up in there

It sounds really unstable

How old is it? What OS are you using? Specs?

its a PNY nvidia gefore4 mx 420
its fairly old its a 64 Mb card
im runnin XP

i put in another video card to see if it was in fact the video card and it was
so... i believe im going to just buy another

now i dont wanna spend more than $100 and i dont game (hardcore) on this comp (thats wut the 360 is for ) i can support only AGP 4x
if u can point me in the right direction for my needs then please do

Both cards are way under your budget and would work nicely since you don't game heavy on your computer.

yea those look pretty decent
how do those rank compared to this?

But being were you only have AGP 4x it probaly wouldn't make much of a diffrence between the three cards because they will all bottleneck...

They should be about the same.
