Well, i need a new video card. My system just crashed BIG TIME. Anyways, i'm doing alot of upgrades. Right now, the only video card that will work in my system is a 4mb AGP card from SiS. LOL The system in my sig is no longer :-(
A tech guy gave me a new mobo and processor for free (same speed tho). He also sold me a gig of ram for it. My WD 200gb HD crashed after that so i got a 120gb seagate. Now the only problem i have left is my computer will not boot to the desktop with my mx 4000 vid card. Worked fine before, but i think i need to upgrade it anyway unless someone has an idea whats causing this problem. If i have my PCI mx 4000 installed, windows will start to load and the screen shuts off when the welcome screen is supposed to come on. After about 2 minutes, the computer restarts. If i put the AGP 4mb card in, works great.
Dunno. I think i'll upgrade anyway... i need it. I was wondering if this looks ok. I'm not a huge gamer anymore, but i do play games every so often. Is this a good deal/worth getting for an fx 5500
. I can't spend more than $100
