In the past twenty minutes i've had three Display Driver errors/crashes, i've not turned my PC off for a while and my temp's 62 degrees. Is this a sign my Video card's on the way out or do i just need to turn it off for a while?
Have you tried updating the drivers?
62 is pretty average for a GPU I believe
It's an 8400, FYI. also no i haven't updated drivers. I'll try that if i get one more display driver error..

Crap i just uninstalled my old drivers to install the new ones and they're saying they can't find compatible drivers for my hardware :wtc:

these'll work
I assume you're running the 32-bit version of vista
Yeah i tried them. THey didn't work. They said "the driver could not be installed, which may cause some compatibility issues. the last driver that worked will now be restored"

Maybe hes being curious. We all do something stupid once in a while.
I am too interested to know why he was looking at Bengay on scrotum.
It was a thread my friend linked me.
Also. switched to Onboard graphics. the 8400 is fucking fried. the thermal paste is just.. gone.
Looks like it's time to get a new GPU. If you have the money get a better one. You can get a 9800 for about $80-$100 these days.
