So yesterday i was playing Pro evolution soccer 6 (on XP) as usual when in the middle of the game the pc froze and i had to restart the computer!
The weird thing that happened was that when XP is starting up it will restart and I cant access the windows.
Since i have also Vista installed i tried to enter on that OS and just like XP, on startup it restarted..
So i entered XP in safe mode and i found that my Screen showed Pink lines going down the whole screen..This does not show on dark backgrounds like black..
I than downloaded the latest driver form Nvidia website and removed all traces of previous driver (Uninstall + 'Driver Cleaner Pro') ..installed the new driver and restarted..
Now i could enter Windows XP (not in safe mode)but still i have pinky lines all over the screen and resolution wont go more than 1024*768
Checking the device manager and under graphics i found this :
Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)
Could this be bad graphic card or is it a software problem?
if so how can i solve it pls
thanks
