32bit true color. i have a MSI x58 motherboard with the i7 chip. i just reinstalled xp, had the same issue. i tried an old pci card same problem. so it not my 8800gts 512. rightnow im trying an new harddrive seeing if thats the issue. after this im thinking that it has to be something with the motherboard. like i said i notice no only in game but on the net as well. its just really weird. it really came out of the blue. one day fine, the next not.
