Well it's not actually on fire, but it's definitely dosed in gas...
Actually it's been failing the past few weeks and I'm looking for a replacement until I can afford a new system. Literally, I'm online now only after 7 hours of safe mode maintenance and cross fingered reboots.
My original troubleshooting thread: https://www.techspot.com/vb/topic154885.html (thx Route44)
I've googled all night yet haven't found anything useful that's at my level of computer savvy as to what is compatible with my system. Here's what I have and what I'm looking for:
Current Card: MSI Nvidia 256mb Geforce 7600 GS DDR (it has a DVI and S-Video output which I'd prefer though do not require)
MOBO: MSI NEO-F P965 Intel S775, (PCI-E v1.0a)
Mem: 1GB PC2-5300 667MHz DDR2 RAM
CPU: Intel Pentium 4 630 3.0GHz HT (2MB), S77
Power Supply: 350W, 'Enlight' brand I think.
Monitor: Samsung Syncmaster 906BW
Budget: As LOW as possible
I run XP and only game older stuff such as WOW, Civ4, SC4. Though I hope to build a dedicated gaming PC, this one is really only used for common use. And I'm in the U.S. from the question in the sticky thread. Really all I need is a card that can maybe run WoW, has a S-Vid out, and is compatible with my mobo and my budget. Thank you very much for reviewing my thread.
Also I'm looking for a good seller. I've scoured Pricewatch.com and find suppliers that I'm unfamiliar with or am reluctant to trust.
