Flickering : Legacy General & Troubleshooting

Aggh. I hate my computer it always screws over on me. I'm running a Dimension 8300 512 RAM and whenever I try and run WoW it freezes on me after logging in w/ a char or when I'm trying to log in w/ a char (when it's loading).

I thought that was a problem, but now the monitor is flickering on and off on me every once in a while.

Also, everyonce in a while it'll freeze up for a second or two, beep, then flicker.

Any suggestions? Otherwise I'm going to have to get some more money to buy a new computer.

1st: Check your monitor (Cables, Inside Stuff)
2nd: Update your VGA Card
3rd: Put a new RAM, maybe your RAM got damaged.
4th: FORMAT (Maybe it will work, but i am not sure)
5th: Nothing worked...buy a new PC

Fixed it myself. Lol took a couple hours but now I'm happy.

nice to hear that

Lol, though it's not doing that when I scroll on the internet it moves down in sort of waves. And WoW is freezing again.

Update your graphic card drivers. Its because you dont have the most current ones. Get the newewst nividia / ati.

yea i already told him to update his VGA Card driver, but i don't know if he did it.

did you update it?
if you are facing some problems in updating it, i can help you

I updated my graphics driver.
Haven't done anything with VGA.
Now my computer thinks I'm running a fake version of Windows XP. And it's freezing without running any programs.

Can't wait til I get money for a new computer. Even If I do end up fixing this computer again i'll probably only use it til I get the new one.

Man......

VGA (Video Graphics Array) Driver = Graphics Driver

It's The Same

Spywares & Viruses, sometimes freeze the PCs

What graphics card do you have. Im 90% sure its your card.

Not sure actually. I have the Dell Dimension 8300 if anyone knows what the basic card that comes with that is then that's what I have.

I think I have the Radeon 9800 Pro

Im assuming you have xp

My monitors not even showing anything now when I try to boot.

I can buy new ram tomorrow I guess as well as a new graphics card. What's the point of the link?
