Vista Split Screen

[Silicone_Milk]

I've never had so many issues with my Windows XP install as I've had with Vista

I was updating the addons on the family Vista machine for World of Warcraft and all was fine.

I had been running the game pre-addon update and then I try to log back on post-update and the game goes to a black screen, loops the sound briefly, and then is silent but still running with a black screen.

Restarted the computer and now the monitor is showing the same image twice (split horizontally across the screen)

The first time I restarted, the computer threw up a BSOD but disappeared before I could read anything.

I ran System Restore and am considering restoring everything back to factory settings but I was hoping somebody would have a solution to this oddity before I do so.

Thoughts?

Resolved.

Ran another system restore and this time the split screen disappeared and I was able to actually log in to an account.

lol, that's a weird one

I'd say so.

Just let the damn thing idle after getting rid of the split screen error and the problem popped up again.

I managed to see what the problem file was on the BSOD and it turns out to be video card related.

Laptop's 54 days out of warranty too
