Thread Starter 
So I recently did an upgrade on many new components for my comp. so now when I try running my graphics card its totally crap. It freezes, blurs, splits the screen, and sometimes bsods. Idk what is the problem. I thought it was the card so I RMAed it and nothing has changed. It's very frustrating :/ any ideas what wrong? And or how to fix it please let me know. My computer specs are in my sig. Thanks OCN

What parts did you upgrade? If you upgraded your motherboard and other components, did you perform a fresh install of Windows?

More than likely that's what's causing your problems. All sorts of driver conflicts can result. Good luck with the reinstall! thumb.gif

a reinstall of the OS should fix your problem.
