I've unplugged it and plugged it back into the mobo, cleaned the dust out of it, and updated the drivers... none of this helped. Guess the only solution now is a new card. Since the PC is no longer used for gaming, I'm just looking for something basic. Anyone got any experience with the GeForce 210 or something within its price range?

Congrats Ken! :D

Zo6's has a certain something about it. Got my vote.

Thanks guys, I'll do what you've suggested and see if it helps.

Today my dad encountered this problem on our PC (specs in my profile). After some time, the screen gets all fuzzy, the PC freezes and needs to be restarted. What might be causing this? My dad said it started occuring directly after installing an update for Avast Free Antivirus. To me, it looks more like a video card issue, but I just want to make sure. Here are some photos of the screen:

Got it today, addicted to it already. Sure, the choice of cars online could be wider, but on the other hand, including only high-end cars helps make the online matches more intense.

Congrats to paradox8831 for winning! :) Week 70 Rules: Photo MUST be taken by you. No Voting for yourself! Photos should be within the limits, which means - not bigger than 350 kb. The winner chooses the next week's theme. If someone wins twice in a row, the runner-up chooses the next theme. If you post more than one photo, you must tell us which one you'll enter with. If you don't, the first photo that you've posted will be entered. Photos cannot be entered twice. Your photo must follow the theme. The person who chose the theme has ultimate control over whether a photo gets entered or not - there will be no arguing over whether a photo is acceptable. Basic photoshopping is allowed, such as resizing, brightness, contrast, selective coloring, saturation, cropping, hue, B&W, noise reduction, borders, your name/logo etc. No pasting extra objects to the photo, changing backgrounds etc, as that's not what PhOTW is about. This week's theme: Animals Closing Date: Thursday, 15th September
