Flickering

[Guest]

After having my computer for a year, I just started having graphic problems,
when I try to run a game or play a video, the screen will go black, sometimes
the game freezes, sometimes not. If I turn my Graphic acceleration all the
way down , there is no more black screen with the videos, but then most of my
games wont run. I just got a new monitor(I was having problem before this)
and a new power supply, so these aren't the case. I've updated my
motherboard agp controllers, and BIOS, as well as my Graphics driver. I run
in DX9.0c on Windows XP. Have a AMD2400+ proc with 256mb ram. My Graphics
card is GForce FX5200.

Go to start/run, and type: DXDIAG to go thru the tests to see if you can
find the cause.
