Not long ago, I notice a strange flickering of my desktop. Thought
someone has hacked in so I went to my firewall app. While there, my
screen suddenly gets weird. Apparently, my video driver has caused some
kind of Stop Error message. I had to get out of the strange looking VGA
rendering of my desktop by rebooting. Once back in, I get a very
welcomed "Sending Error Report to M$". Good! Now, they can deal with a
vendor who no longer supports an out dated video driver!. :)

As for me, I'm shopping for a new video card that wil work with my LCD
monitor. Just need a good card for web designing, strategy game and
general workhorse and watching my DVD movies. Any suggestions?
