| Greetings people. Breifly put, i sold my PCI E graphics card to a distant friend of mine because hes into gaming and i no longer am, but when my monitor is connected to onboard video my picture is really fuzzy and distorts a lot, sort of like a rippling effect. I have installed the drivers for my onboard and the problem persists. I get the Rippling effect from the moment i cut the pc on. The problem goes away when I switch the desktop resolution to 800x600, but the icons are extremely big and things dont fit the screen ( but the distortion, rippling/fuzziness ceases)i'm used to working at 1024x768 and this will not cut it for me.. Is there a solution to this problem? I also have the most recent set of drivers installed. My Onboard Video is ATI Radeon Xpress 200 series. I am using Windows XP pro Sp2. Motherboard:Intel D101GGC Pentium 4 3.0 ghz hyperthreading Direct X9.0 Thanks |

| From what you've put it sounds driver related. Have you completely removed the driver for the graphics card? Also, have you updated/installed the driver for the onboard graphics? I ask because if the pc came with the card installed the onboard graphics will be using window's generic drivers to run.

| seems like the resolution 800x600 gets rid of the problem, but everything becomes to bloated for the screen to capture. Last edited by DonnyTEN : 18th Jan 2008 at 02:36 PM. |
