RE: Graphic Card is not working...

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

I am beginning to think that WinXP has a definite problem here, becase my
system configuration is perfectly running under WinME which has not any
VgaSave drivers. I installed many drivers for my video card including the
latest ones(Winfast FX5200). I have updated bios and chipset drivers of
motherboard (GA BX2000+). I tried to configure BIOS settings of motherboard,
but unfortunately VgaSave is still running. I am really tired and thinking to
post this hardware problem to Microsoft!
