Hello
A couple week ago, my Father gave me a Dell Precision 380 workstations that he had got from his work as they were upgrading their computer. It has a Intel Pentium D 3.2 GHz processor, 2GB of RAM and a NVIDIA Quadro FX 3500. I decide to use it for general use as they are quite nippy and did a good job for what I needed it for. After a couple of weeks, I began to get error messages saying that the display driver has stopped responding and has successfully recovered when using Youtube. Then, it started to get more frequent and happened when browsing them web and every time I open a new application. On the bios screen when starting the PC there are hundreds of "broken pixels" that disappear once the operating system has loaded. Also when in the bios, several whole letters and turquoise in colour. Now, triangular shape occur on the screen. Its hard to describe to I took a picture of it.
I have tried replacing the graphics card with an identical one and got the same problems. I have tried running the computer on Windows 7 and 8 and got the same problems. I have installed various graphics drivers which did not help.
Yesterday, I reseated the RAM and all the problems went, every single one. However, after around an hour of use, they came back as they were.
