hi all...

i got a problem right now...just unitl yesterday my computer was working fine using a 8800gt. Well when i tried to power on my computer today it shows a bunch of weird symbols in the bios startup process...then goes to windows loading but then goes black.

The thing is that im worry about is that i got a cousing who has the same type of video card. My suspicion is that the same day he went to my home and changed his faulty one for his one and never said anything while i wasnt at home. They just told your cousin was here and was using your pc...then i came back home from work and bang it aint working.

now my question is: is there a way that windows saved this kind of information? that 2 different types of video cards were installed lately...if so when can i find this info. BTW my computer does boot in safe mode not in normal mode. Sorry for making this kinda long and thanks for your cooperation. :sweat:
