Default What's wrong with my graphic card?

Morning all!

I just got a pny Verto G-Force FX 5700 and it appears fine under windows but no games or demos work at all.

This is a screen shot from the dawn demo

Any idea what's wrong?

Greg

Get the latest drivers from nvidia.com and update your Direct X to the latest version. Should clear it

make sure to uninstall the original drivers before installing the latest. i had a problem with directX and this sorted it after much head scratching.
