Hey, I am a long time computer user/hacker/builder, but this is my first time on a forum like this. I am in the middle of building my second PC from scratch (the rest of my PCs have been used Dells I got from my work which I fixed up). I purchased an ASUS M4A78LT-M LE from Amazon, the first one I got was DOA, so I returned it; the second one loaded windows 7 x64 fine, but I cannot get the graphics to work, I am using an EVGA nVidia 8800gt card which worked fine in my old computer. I can't play any form of video or view any pictures or play any games, (online or from my HD) without lines, grains, and a strange bluish hue to them. I tried using the onboard graphics and an nVidia Quadro FX 3450 instead of the 8800gt, but to no avail. I've decided to just give this one back and buy a new Mobo, but I need suggestions, I'm willing to pay $100 max.
