Merry Christmas everybody.
So tomorrow i am going home for xmas and i will be helping a friend fix his computer. Here is the problem. He said it started to just cut off on him. After looking loser at the problem, he said that the screen will get all weird as in colors and what not, then the screen will go. Shortly there after, the whole thing shuts down.
At first i thought it might be the motherboard. But i was wondering about the video card. The video card is like a 7600 gt or something. Less then a year old. Wouldn't the system still run with say itunes playing music and all that even if the video card went bad? You would just not be able to see anything correct?
I dont have really any of the spec for his computer, other then the video card. Any thoughts on whats up?
