Hi All
Ok Im having a problem that I need some help with.
While playing BF 2142, my computer froze, and so I restarted it. Upon restart, the boot screen had several vertical dashed lines running through it, and the rest of the boot up process screens are garbled and unreadable. When windows booted up, the computer would crash with a "page fault in non paged area" error.
I managed to start it up in safe mode, and uninstalled my video card drivers. Now, the boot screen is still unreadable (artifacts?), but when windows starts, the screen clears up and runs normally (without video card drivers). I tried to install the drivers again, but the computer bsod with "page fault in non paged area" in the middle of the installation process. Drivers are nvidia 93.71
So Im basically wondering what is the cause of this, I dont want to buy a new video card and then find out that the problem is the motherboard or the psu.
My system is
Gforce 6800 ultra agp
1 gig corsair pc 3200
Asus A8V deluxe
Athlon 64 fx 53
Aspire atx 500 watt psu
windows xp media center
Any help at all is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
