problems with video card
Hey guy I just got a new video card a Nvidia 9600 GT and am installing it into a fresh copy of windows. However once the computer restarts this happens
 I'm running an Acer E700, Pentium D, 650W power supply. I'm thinking its a bad card but maybe looking for a second opinion

What type of output to the monitor are you using?? Standard VGA, HDMI, DVI??
XP or Vista. (9XXX cards are known to have problems with Vista, until drivers are updated. |

Did you get the earlier graphics showing windows is loading? Have you tried entering XP in save-mode? Did that also come up corrupted?

Looks like the RAM on that card is shot to me. Like Pisces said, if that's all that it's showing, it's safe to say you got a dud there.
Else; did you uninstall the old one? I mean drivers, clean in safe mode, maybe even uninstall the card itself in device manager (the regular drill)? Latest drivers? 175.19 :hmm: http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_175.19_whql.html
