This is a problem with a Dell Dimension Xps Gen2. Myhusbands comp started getting green lines appearing on his screen .About a dozen vertical, maybe half inch wide. Sometimes he reboots and it goes away, sometimes he reboots several times and it goes away. He uses his comp mostly for gaming. Heard him say he has a radeon card in it, not sure which. His system is about 2 years old. Recently fried the monitor as well, so he swiped mine, a very old compaq. Was getting lines before that happened, and when he switched them to see if it was his monitor. I was thinking I need to pull out his tower and clean it, very dusty, maybe remove his video card and reseat it. Think it will help? He just wants to buy a new card for about 400 bucks.Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
