Video card Repair What should you pay attention to

Computer in daily use due to the graphics card caused by the crash screen for beginners is usually not easy to judge, especially in the hardware and software before the problem is not confirmed. One but understand the hardware and software can be targeted to try to solve the solution, so have a clear diagnosis of the idea is indeed very necessary. In fact, the reason for the flower screen is more, the general screen in the presence of a flower screen if it is a very regular pattern, then the probability of graphics card is much greater, otherwise it is best to use the replacement method with another monitor to try. Relative to the flower screen, the cause of the crash will be more complex, more difficult to judge. The following is a summary of some of the more effective analysis methods, I hope to share with you players.

Software aspects:

If it is playing a game, processing 3d before the flower screen, pause, the phenomenon of the crash then after the elimination of heat can be tried to change a version of the video card driver, and recommended the use of WHQL certified driver, because the graphics driver is incompatible with the program itself or drive the possibility of a bug is indeed very common. For some video cards, you can also try to turn off the AGP quick Write (fastwrites) and the side-band Addressing (AGP sideband) in the motherboard BIOS.

If none of the above methods work, then it will have to reload, in the day-to-day maintenance by reloading can be resolved a lot. Install the drivers in the correct order after installation: Windows xp--motherboard Drivers--video card drivers--sound cards and other PCI device drivers-peripheral drivers. When the driver installation sequence is not normal, it may also produce some, the driver installation sequence and the underlying device driver, registry key values and Gart mapping list, etc. are related.

You can also upgrade your graphics driver by using Master's driver upgrades.

Hardware aspects:

First of all, to confirm the startup process is normal, if a splash display on the flower screen crash then first check the graphics card cooling, hand touch the memory chip temperature, check the video card fan is stopped. Then look at the Agp/pcie slot on the motherboard whether there is ash, the gold finger is oxidized, and then according to the specific situation to clean up the dust, with an eraser rub gold fingers, the oxidation part of polishing. If there is heat dissipation, change the fan or install the heatsink on the video memory, or enter the BIOS to see if the voltage is stable.

For a long pause or panic, Huati phenomenon, in the elimination of overclocking use of the premise, is generally a power supply or motherboard slot power supply is not enough, we recommend that the power supply to try. For power, the current DIY market many brands (including the current relatively loud several large brands) of the power supply nominal 300w, but the actual output power is only about 230w. Many graphics cards already belong to high frequency, high temperature, high power consumption of products, the demand for power also increased. We recommend that players who have the conditions to purchase pay attention to calculate the actual output power, it is best not to buy a motley power. Also as far as possible not to buy a cheap purchase of 200 yuan chassis plus power. In addition to the motherboard design defects caused by the card slot power supply, you can try in the motherboard BIOS to increase the voltage of 0.1v.

If the video card is still a flower screen after the above method, you can try to refresh the bios of the graphics card, go to the card manufacturer's homepage to see the BIOS that has not been updated. For some of the video cards of a motley manufacturer, you can try using a large manufacturer's BIOS to brush your graphics card.
