Inspiron 8000 help

Recommended Posts

Hello I have been having trouble with my video card as I do not know which exact driver needs to be installed for this Dell Inspiron laptop. The videocard I have placed inside is the Nvidia Geforce4 440 64Mb. Upon installing the videocard i assume its a driver thing i get these lines appearing allover the screen and the resolution looks similar to a blown up safe mode type style of font. Can anyone help me with this issue? Thanks in advance :)

Edit: I forgot to post the specs...Its running win xp pro Sp2 and has 512 of ram Im quite a novice at this stuff so if there is more information needed please dont hesitate to say so

What driver did you use?

60.72 was the one i recently tried. now when i put in the Nivida card i get these wierd glitchy lines on the screen and every screen is scrambled....when i put back the original dell videocard everything works. Im not sure how to do this so any help is appreciated and thanks for the reply.

I'm really not sure. Dells can be a bit finnicky and I've never really dealt with drivers one one personally... so I'll just wait for someone else to reply.
