One, it would really help if you provided a little more info, like say... your system specs.

Second, every image you included is gone/not showing.

Third, you might want to read my "How To Ask For Help" guide in my signature.

Help us help you.

Thanks.

Try a System Restore to a point before you had the problem with the graphics card. The driver may have become corrupted.

macgyvr thanks for help but the issue is that i made format after removing the graphics card ...

 

[sygnus21]

Hmmm...his post didn't indicate a system restore. Perhaps I missed it???

At any rate ad350, can you tell us what you mean by this statement....

the issue is that i made format after removing the graphics card ...

Not sure what it is you're saying. Sorry.

Run Windows Memory Diagnostic Test for full two passes. If errors, remove RAM to isolate problem stick.

Determine your HD maker and download their DOS diagnostics, burn to CD and do full HD scan.

Run sfc /scannow to make sure corrupted system files are not the problem, and then a http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/3413-repair-install.html?ltr=R to make sure it is not install.

What Display adapter are you using now? Check in Device manager to see if it is in error, try to update Driver using Auto updater. Check for a more recent driver from manufacturer's Support Downloads webpage, and any custom Windows Updates you haven't installed.

gregrocker thanks for help
1-i did windows memory diagnostics tool and it showed hardware problems were detected contact manufacturer's ....
i removed one ram and still the issue is there i tried with both but I'll try new ram later till then..
2-Determine your HD maker and download their DOS diagnostics, burn to CD and do full HD scan.

i need more explanation with this point..

3-
Run sfc /scannow no issue it's ok

4- i have the most recent drivers at all for all hardware....

 

[gregrocker]

isolate the problem memory stick and replace. try install with other.

Look in Device Manager for Hard Drive and google model number to determine maker.

As a side note

If you have bad memory,,, (which you need to run Mem diags on each stick individually to isolate the bad stick)
There is no point in continuing diagnostics of other parts as bad memory could (not saying will) but could give you false information.

Fix the RAM problem first then continue other diags.

 

[sygnus21]

Agreed. No need going any further until you fix the RAM problem. Anyting else is chasing air.

 

[ad350]

OK I'll do the ram first and then I'll reply here ..

thanks for the appreciated help everyone post here .

 

[ad350]

i took my pc to the hardware store, fixed the RAM problem and everything is working very fine now..
(I didn't think that the RAM would have been the reason behind my problem)
With abundant thanks..

Corrupted Data

among other things
