HELP!!!!!
Please could someone help.
I have an XP SP2 machine and recently my graphics card failed to function - Gobbly Gook on the screen etc, etc. I swapped the card from another PC it now boots into the BIOS ok but it freezes before loading windows with a "Blinking Cursor" on the top left hand screen. Any help in getting this resolved would be extremely welcomed. Regards. -- Flinty |
