My learned friends,
After a comedy of errors, I finally acquired a new and compatible AGP
graphics card. After installation my display was fine, in fact it is better
than fine, in the sense that the display is much sharper, obviously due to
the more advanced card. In sum, in seems that the problem did rest with my
old graphic card. I thank you all for your contributions. You have my
gratitude.
I am still
Yours,

that you have acquired

because the distortion
occurs at the time of power
up, then it is a hardware issue.
we know it's not the monitor
and we know your intel chip has
agp and we know your motherboard
has no regular vga port installed
i don't recall but i think
you may have indicated that
disabling the driver helped.
tricky problem. but likely resolved
with a new video board...
gives us an update when you
get a better motherboard or video
card....

My learned friend db,
It has been some time since our last communication as it took longer than
anticipated to acquire another monitor. Nevertheless, I have plugged it in
and booted the PC. At the boot-up sequence the windows logo along with
loading bar is still distorted. Therefore, the problem remains. Can I assume
as that the problem must be with the graphics card? However, since I disabled
the graphics card (not uninstalled, but disabled) I no longer seem to have
problems getting to
I did as you requested regarding the msinfo32. The following is the

I admit that I do not know what the above means. Is there any other
information I can provide you with?
Do you think that the problem rests with the graphics card? If so should I
replace it. I cannot imagine where I would get a temporary substitute card,
just to test which may mean I will have to buy a new one.
Please advise.
