Re: Green Pixels

So, maybe we are both right.  I just went and used the Geforce Experience (update tool) and had it check my drivers again.  Apparently when I thought I had updated, I missed the message that said "Your drivers are up to date."  

So there haven't been new drivers in 7 months.  I find that a bit weird, since there aren't even any beta drivers showing and I used to get update messages a lot.

  • You're going to love this.  As I was working around the house this morning, I could hear a weird rattle coming from my desk area.  I went over to investigate and one of my cats was behind the monitor batting at the DVI cable where it plugs into the monitor.  I shooed the cat away and checked connection, which ended up being ever so loose, just the tiniest bit.  It was loose enough though that when I pushed it back into place, there was a bit of movement.  Long story short, that ended up being the fix.

    The only way that could be true is if your GPU is ancient and practically unsupported any longer. 

    " Card name: NVIDIA GeForce GTS 250 " 

    Yup, that's the way it is, all right.  Six years is FOREVER in terms of game video -- your card is Dx10.0, not Dx 10.1 or Dx11, so the nicer games are out of your reach.
