Monitor problem

Bought a flat panel Sceptre X96-Komodo V11A which worked fine for 2 weeks then went fuzzy.

It did not come w/ a driver but XP found it.

Now it's fuzzy and you can't change resolution.

I downloaded a driver from Sceptre which didn't help so I re-attached my Dell monitor which is also not working correctly and "updating driver" did not help.

What next?

Is the Dell monitor having the same problem as the new one?

Did you check to see if they work ok on another system, or if they work ok in Safe mode?

Did you make sure your video card is fully inserted, its fan is running, and any dust is cleaned off its heatsink and fan?

It was the graphics card. Bought a new one and all is well.

Thanks for the "posts".
