I was having issues with my pc freezing at random times so i ran seagate tools for dos on my hd. I ran the long test and my hard drive passed and smart wasn't tripped.
So i used a software called pc check that is  bootable software i ran mother board tests,processor tests, graphics card test just any of the ones displayed and all came out clean well i wanted to use a more thorough testing piece of software but i started having the issues shown below in the video also i had the urge to say what the heck and tried installing windows 7 again i got to the graphical first section of the install process where you choose language and key board setup and my screen looked similar to the picture below.

Hi Smirk24,

First of all backup any important data before we begin troubleshooting, as if your graphics is failing, you may lose data:

Second off all, Please download, install and run 3Dmark and stress test your graphics You want to download the Basic Edition. When you are running the test, if you experience blue screens, crashes or graphical issues. Then your Graphics card is failing

As displayed in the video i cant get my computer to turn on in order to run the test. I press the power
Button the fans turns, the hd light turns off, the power button stays no beep sounds, and there isnt a signal hitting the monitor because the monitor lights stay orange but nothing shows on the screen

If that image is of your graphics card I would say the card is shot.

Yeah I would agree, I suggest you replace it smirk24, It is obviously failing. If you can't install windows because of it, then I would say it is not a software, but a hardware issue.

Did you pay for PC Check or was it a different download?

[smirk24]

It was a paid for copy that i bought way back in the day.

How does it work if its an integrated graphics card?

you would need to replace the motherboard if its graphics card
