Installing video card prob

[Something Vague]

Well, I Installed a ATI 1300PRO on my bud's computer yesterday. It worked fine when I left, though, he calls me early this morning (ugh) and says... "it flickers, going fuzzy... werid"

I'm heading out there soon, want to get a head start, re-install drivers, what should I do?

Most likely it's something to do with the refresh rate (I think).. could be it's on a setting the monitor or card doesn't support.

I was thinking the loose cable more so than refresh rate, are drivers most updated? if not try omega drivers

He is returning the card, we think, that it is damaged. I tried serveral things, including driver installation, etc.

I would try Nvidia. They always have had quality products. I just got a lot of new pc parts last week for my birthday. I got a 6800 XT, and its sweet. Works fine, gets great FPS for the $99. :tu:

Nvidia has always been good for me too . For their price, they're excellent :imho: . I've never had a problem with them at all.
