( notice, the video drivers also are gone i cant install them ...) Here's my laptop specs: Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Xi 2428 - Intel Core 2 Duo 2GHz - 2GB Ram - 8600MGS Video Card & 512MB Vram... Please help me...
hi bro, what game are you playing? does this happen to other games that you play? and what operating system are you using bro?
hmm it was GTA IV game, but i got it from very long time and was running okay without any problems (on low graphics because of my weak video card). hmm this is on the screen everywhere no just the video games. Windows 7...
It could be a bad video link between your laptop and its screen. Have you tried using an external monitor? Also could be poor Windows drivers or a bug in NT7 itself. Have you tried booting to a different OS (e.g. Linux live CD) and seeing if the problem persists there?
Hello, i tried in linux no yellow lines there just on windows 7... i tried to unistall the video driver and try another driver but i got this problem in Device Manager : ( Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43) ). I dont know what to do pls help me to solve this annoying problem ... I will try to open the laptop and check the video card from inside...
It's a problem with Windows then, not your hardware. Yeah, sounds like that driver may corrupt or it could simply be the wrong driver. I wouldn't; I think your Linux test has sufficiently proven that it's a Windows problem and not a hardware issue.
Well the yellow lines are gone now i dunno why i just left the laptop idle and they are gone... But if i run any video gamez the lines will back... Hmmm :S
