Yes! I know this is a proggrammers ? or a hardware ? but they could not help! Whenever I run opengl on my comp any time or program everything turns multi-colored and the screen flashes rainbow colors! I have tested all the drivers and looked for driver conflicts everywere! I tried new ram and put he vid card even in another comp and the vid card worked on there comp with the same drivers!
here is my setup
MOBO Epox ep-8k3ae
CPU AMD 1.67
Ram 256mb OCS
Video GForce3 64
Sound Card sound blaster live digital
O/S windows XP
Thanks Greg
 
This is a common problem on T.V.s when the 3.58 mhz crystal goes bad. A new mobo would be cheaper than trouble shooting this on a repair board. I checked a few old mobos and vid cards, they all had a 14.3 crystal on them. If this is a PCI card, try an AGP card and vice versa - may be a bad slot. Since this card works in a different mobo, this elimimates the card. In desperation, you could pull the crystal off an old board and try. You probably need a new mobo anyway!
 
Yes micker i do think im going to need mobo and i already ordered one but im trying to figure out how it went bad? Thanks for you time!
