Hey all,

First of all, I'd like to mention how glad I am to have found people with the same problem as me, I was beginning to think it's just another product of my usual bad luck concerning technology and how little it desires to work for me.

CPU specs -
900mhz, pentium 3
256mb ram
27 GB hard drive
Windows XP

I have an ASUS NVIDIA X series v9520 128mb , brand new from the shop. I was sick and tired of not being able to play many games because I was using a rubbish on-board graphics card. Got home, inserted it, installed all drivers, updated drivers, installed "The Movie's" and to my horror, the screen kept changing from red to normal colours every couple of seconds, images become distorted, along with some text (This applies to 2D menu screens and normal image files eg bmp, jpg, png but ONLY in video games, Windows works just fine), although 3D models can appear as they are meant to, but skins can sometimes be missing or made to look like mesh. Tried all my games, both old and new, and it's happening to all of them. Liam, I've tried everything you've suggested already, and I'm praying that you might've solved this problem in the time that this thread has stood still... Or has anyone on this thread solved it themselves somehow? I'd like to keep buying a new card as a last resort...

Thanks in advance for any help, and good luck in solving it if you haven't already,

Mike
