ok, i was using my dad's computer and i was waiting for something to load up when i noticed the icon for the computers graphics card in the tray thing (the bit of the taskbar on the far right). so i just looked at the options on there and found one about flipping the screen. i clicked on it and the screen went on it's side. so i clicked on it again and it went back to normal. i clicked on another one which said something about change desktop size/resolution (can't remember which) and the screen goes really strange with lots of stripes moving across the screen really fast. you can't see what you are doing and i can't find the button while it's like that. i think the screen has become skewed and pasted again and again in these stripes. i can only think that the computer does not support that option which i clicked on. The only solution i can possibly think of is taking out the hard drive, putting it into my PC, backing up the important files then reinstalling windows on it. my PC shouldn't be affected because i have a different type of graphics card. my dad's card is an ATI radion and mine is an Nvidia GeForce 2.
does anyone know of an easier way of sorting this out?
thanks for reading though all this and thanks in advance for any answers.
thanks to deathead for the sig!
