    hi!
    i think i may have ruined my video card somehow. i have an ATI x1900 512 mb video card on my Dell XPS 400. when i start up my computer the start up logo and welcome screen are all messed up. when the desktop finally comes up, theres small rectangles all over the screen, and there appears to be some sort of mirror images because i see more than one mouse pointer and some shortcuts appear more than once on my desktop. is there something i can do to fix this and have my screen the way its supposed to be. btw, the gpu is idling at 57C. thanks for the help.

    Do you have the driver disk that came with the video card ? If so, uninstall the drivers and reinstall them. Or check for any updates for your card..
