Hello, I'm in a quandry. Since I last restarted my PC, the video card has really been struggling (EVGA 8800GTS). This was after the most recent windows update, so I thought maybe it was a drivers issue and uninstalled then tried reinstalling the nVidia drivers, but according to device manager "This device cannot start." The drivers are installed but don't appear to be.
Accompanying this problem is colourful, glitchy lines throughout the BIOS menu and during windows startup (XP-SP3).
I was doing some reading up and learned that it might be that my PSU is dying, and I'd just like to get some confirmation on that. It's an Enermax Noisetaker II (600W) and has a fan dial on the side which I was just fiddling around with and it's sluggish to respond and seems to be functioning a lot weaker than I remember it. Could it be that I need a new PSU? I really don't have the money to replace both the PSU and GFX card, and I haven't had any other problems with the card.
Thanks
