Howdy, Just regarding the above, in case you don't know, go to terminal, maximise the screen, and type in 'lspci' then enter. This should give you an indication of what is in your machine. For example mine here says .... 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) Either way, my advice is going to be - new graphics card. I've built several machines now and just picked any random nVidia card from a name brand, something decent but not super high-end, and they have always worked 100%.
