    the past few weeks our comp has been slow then it started freezing on the "starting windows" screen. well now when i go to start it it brings up the blue memory dumb screen and says "The Video Driver Failed to Initialize." i cant get it to start in safe mode, it loads all the files and freezes on that screen. and it will not start on anyother modes either.

    Thanks

    It's always possible your video card is defective but could also be something with your boot partition. You can always try a second video card if you got one. or first trying a "fixboot" from your windows disk, But if the pc was running fine then all the sudden the prob started, i would suspect the video card of course basing on the information so far. Just a suggestion
