Windows Vista desktop problem - Help needed
 

Computer fixed, never mind.

Hold on. I'll take care of it right now.

Please do, OANST.

No but really, real help is appreciated.

There's your problem.

That's just spamming, you guys are no fun.

Wells the only thing i can think of is restoring your computer to an earlier date . but first download a free virus program just to make sure that it isn't a virus that's causing it ;C

Sure we are. We just aren't helpful.

Bleh, it might be the graphics card that's messed up. I'll try to figure it out.

I won't be using the forums that much for a while, I guess.

(This is like a vacation for OANST, haha.)

This.

No time like the present, you stupid new person.

Vista? lol.

I use Vista and I've had a grand total of 0 problems ever.

This just in: If Vista is used for it's true purpose (watching Japanese babies talk about their feelings), it will have zero problems ever.


Sorry, bro. I had to.

uguu~

Great, I got my computer temporarily to work by updating the drivers to an older version and then back to the newest one. Still, those pixels and lines of ugly colors are haunting me. I fucking need to fix this soon.

PS. All of you are assholes except for RyuuFox.

Have you tried using a different monitor? That problem may not be the computer at all.

remove the video cords and place the ends in a glass of water.

Well, I only have one monitor and I'm almost 100% sure now that the problem is related with my graphic card/whatever ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro is... When I downloaded the latest drivers for it, the computer worked fine for let's see... 30 minutes. It can't be a virus, I let avast! scan the computer and only few infections found and I eliminated them. Nothing happened. Maybe I just need to buy a new graphic card then...

Something similar happened to my Grandmother's Vista. I fixed it by simply setting the resolution to a higher amount of pixels and the colour quality to 64 bits.

I have Vista...It sucks.

It's good for gaming tho'.

I have the Vista Home Premium, and I think this only goes to 32 bits.

remove the video cords and place the ends in a glass of water.

I AM PRETTY SURE THAT WOULD HARM MY COMPUTAH.

Not if you cut the cords first.

shall i get the hotdogs and whipped cream?

Your ass!

It's computer cancer. Place your computer in a microwave, the microwave radiation and raviolis will counteract the cancer

sounds like your video card is broken.

try this: make a screenshot when you see those colour noise again and post it here. if we can see it on the screenshot, then your monitor is fine.
open the case and look if the fan of your video card is working properly

anyway, those colour noises are a typical sign that your video card is kaput. simply change your video card

and next time, don't waste your time and post any computer problems in here, these guys won't help you. there are forums for this issues.

Scrabface, I'm sure the problem is in the video card, because I was about to play Minecraft and it said that it was unable to start because of "Bad video cards".

By the way everyone, is video card same as graphic card?

Also, I think the video card is built-in in the computer. It can not be changed I guess.

Is potato the same as potato?

You can't tell but I totally said them differently in my head.

Interesting, OANST.

Don't forget carrots.

yes, you can.

Why don't you take it in to a computer shop or something and see if the pro's can do anything about it.
Unless you have to pay a ridiculous amount of money, which is probably the case :(

I'm going to. And my parents have a "ridiculous amount of money", haha.

I've never hated new people more.

Well (un)lucky you! I got the computer fixed.

PS. A mod can Necrum this thread.

We don't do that.

Then who does? Can I close it?

We don't close threads*. Just stop posting it and it will die on its own.




*generally speaking

Really?
