When I start my Acer Aspire 5920G, it displays 6 small screens.

- appears in BIOS mode, in Safe Mode, boot in Windows 7 DVD
- removed the Nvidia graphics card, and it became worst, white screen.
- last time I did is watching a internet video and noticed some flickering and sound delays.
- already used repair my computer in Win 7 DVD boot, but the problem persist.

Will post a snapshot of the screen. I still need to figure out to post the picture from my iPad.

Hello Tormentor15, welcome to SF!

Is the info on those 6 screens correct? Iow, are they 6 replicas of what your normal screen would be?
Take out the 8600 AND check your RAM. Assume you have either 3x1GB or 2GB+1GB? In the latter case, take out the 1 GB.

Start in Safemode if possible and run SFC:
Run a system file check to verify and repair your system files.
To do this type cmd in search, then right click to run as administrator, then
SFC /SCANNOW

Hi MvdB. Yes, it is 6 replicas of the normal screen. It can only boot up in Safe mode. My RAM is 2+1GB.

I will try your suggestion.

Well, it does look you could do some real parallel processing there :D I have to pay for 6 screens and you get them for free!

What happened when you tried this:
Try reboot, keep pressing F8, Goto Windows Advanced Opions and choose Enable VGA mode.

I can't see that option at all.

Ok, lets check that I'm sure of what you did or did not do:

1. Have you taken out the 1GB ? If not yet, please do.
2. Can you see enough in one of the six screens to login and type commands? If so... do and tryout the SFC. If possible in Safe Mode.
3. sounds strange but have you tried carefully checking the screen positioning to see if there might be a bad connection?
