problem

This computer at my work is having a problem loading pictures, on the browser and other things. At first I thought it was just IE, but I messed with the setting and it fixed nothing. Then when reinstalling nortons, I noticed the backround was white, when its normally yellow. Also some pictures/graphics that normally showed in nortons did not come up. The video card on the system is a ati radeon 9200.

Heres a ss of binarydreams to show you an example.

I just tried dling the newest graphic driver from ati for it, and it almost finished then the installer closed out.

update-I tryed to install the driver update again and it worked this time, but the same problem is still there. Also after installing the new driver now it says the video card is a sapphire radeon 9200SE atlantis 128mb.

try restarting the computer, sometimes when i exit games it will still have the same video settings as i had in the game. But other than that im not sure.

Images in your applications do not show properly? What was the last thing you did before this started to happen? Do other websites load for you?

images do not load properly on any site, or just about any program. The women that works at this station said, that it had been this way for quite a while she just delt with it because she had work to get done.

Wow. Too bad she didn't say something sooner. It sounds like something corrupted the registry. I would scan for a virus, spyware, etc. Also, if you have to 2000 or XP CD, run this at the run prompt:
sfc /scannow

This may or may not help. Sometimes when people let problems go on long enough like this the issue can only be resolved by a clean install. I think if this is an NT based OS, the user should only have User rights, not admin rights.
