BleepingComputer.com: Video Card or Memory problem?

I turned on my computer yesterday and after about 10 mins of playing WoW the image changed to different colors and all distorted. I then went to safe mode and downloaded the drivers and installed them. When i turned my computer back to normal mode it distorted and froze at the login screen. Anyone that can tell me how to fix this or what is wrong at least?

If you have a actual add-in video card it probably has failed.

If you have onboard [built in] video your system memory has probably failed.
[This can be tested]

If you have a add-in video card that requires a power lead from the power supply there is a slim chance your power supply is failing.

Its an add-in video card

"Its an add-in video card"

I would say the video card has failed.
You need to uninstll the video card though the Device Manager & try a different video card in the unot OR try the video card in a different unit & see if it has the same problem.

well the computer runs fine in safe mode other than the yellow verticle lines running down the screen, but i tried it on a different monitor and same thing happens on there

Go to the Control Panel
Double click the System icon
Click on the Harware tab
Open the Device Manager
Expand the Display Adaoters listing
Right click on the video adapter & click Uninstall on the menu
Uninstall the video adapter
Do each listed
Do not let the unit restart until all are uninstalled
Once all are uninstalled restart the unit & let the video card reinstall

If the problem is still there replace the video card.
