| 652325 | 2008-03-24 08:14:00 | I assume, from what I have read on this forum, that my video card needs a new driver . Every so often the screen will go blank even though there seems to be a video signal . The card is a GA-MG400 . I have searched Google but I can't seem to find the driver for that card . But when I do find it, what do I do with it? How do I install it? I have no idea . :help: My scanner does not work at all . When I attempt to use the scanner it tells me that the scanner is not found . The USB and power plugs are plugged in, power on, etc . Does that need a new driver as well?:help: Thanks for your help . |

Could be the USB port you are using is now dead, does it work with other USB devices, try a different USB port . If you havent changed anything, there should be no reason to upgrade the hardware drivers 95% of the time . |

| 652328 | 2008-03-25 07:18:00 | hey an 'old' driver will work just as well they dont 'degrade' so your screen going blank wont be anything to do with 'needing a new driver' at all ! it's more likely the vid card itself is failing |

| 652329 | 2008-03-25 08:40:00 | Rumpty: Thanks. I downloaded that driver and installed it but there is a setting that needs to be changed as everything on the screen is too big. There is a screen icon on the task bar that says "Matrox QuickDesk - 800 x 600, True Colour (32bit)" and I think that the 800 x 600 needs to be changed? How do I do that? Drcspy: Thanks for that. You may be right. I suppose I can only wait and see. The fault is very irregular, sometimes for a few seconds and sometimes for a minute or two. SolMeister: The USB port seems to be okay. I only have two and my modem dialler works in both. Perhaps I need to check everything again. I had never heard of a USB port going crook. Something else, perhaps? Thanks for your help.:thanks |
