Childhood television shows have taught me that you either need to send five special rings to five special young people, or send a robot to recruit five teenagers with attitude.

ffs it's probably my video card? It can't be a dust issue, right? Maybe power supply?

i mean would a video card cause text issues like that? id expect it to be a bit more crazier if it was the card.

what kinda of computer is it. a laptop? desktop? are you able to test out another card?

maybe check the cpu and heatsink. possibly needs new paste and reseating. might just be dying.

could try clean windows install

Tc, try rolling back your last graphics card driver update and/or your last windows update. It's possible something went wrong during the install and that's why things are all messed up.

At the very least, it's a zero cost solution to try with no real repercussions if it doesn't work.

What kind of cpu do you have? It might have integrated graphics you can use to check. I don't think it's the graphics card, though, but I could be wrong.

what are its specs?

a quick test would be to plug your monitor into the hdmi slot on your motherboard i/o instead of your graphic card (higher up instead of lower near the expansion slots) and see if you still have problems since it wont use the graphics card

but im not sure if this will work if your cpu doesnt have a integrated graphics chip in it? im not sure ive always had either or

Woogle Chrome, Noogle Chrome, and Google Chrome, don't see what the problem is.

i mean mezcla has it, you can test integrated graphics. another way to go about it might be to just disable the card through device manager *shrug*
