Need a replacement video card
I got the monitor.....looks great. But the black and gray lines are still there so now I'm thinkin that its the video card. Whats a good replacement for a Nvidia Riva TNT2 Model 64/Model 64 Pro?

Sasage, up graded both of my video cards a couple of months ago with the Gainward TI4200. Cards are excellent. I run Flight Simulator2002 and the graphics are great. Don't forget to up grade your video drivers too.

Don't get the FX. They aren't built as well as the GeForce 4. For value, the MX440 or 400 is fine. I got one for 50 bucks for PCI, so I'm sure it will only be a bit more for AGP.
My friend has an ATI 9000, and he hates it, and I see him having problems with it all the time. It'* the drivers.
NVidia cards are nicer with drivers, so you will be pleased with a MX 400 or whatever. Or, do what aviator said and get the Gainward 4200. They make great cards. I have a Gainward 4800 and it performs better than most cards out there.
