I totally forgot something... I've read that sometimes you have to purge for an app to be completely removed. But I've never attempted this myself. It requires the command prompt... and there is a chance video won't work at all upon reboot. Just a shell. Then you have to manually install...

Interesting... I never backup my systems... just my important files. Guess I still have that Windows XP habits: The system is corrupted - Vanilla Install There is too much fragmentation - Vanilla Install Too many random files from apps - Vanilla Install Too many temp files - Vanilla Install...

Yes me as well. My oldest daughter is using and even older laptop (That huge suitcase one) with Mint 18 on it and she likes it. I think its too slow, but she's happy with it. I even offered to run OpenBox desktop environment, but she's happy

I don't use HDMI at home or even have a 4K screen, but here is a good read: https://www.cnet.com/news/what-hdmi-cable-should-i-buy/ Chances are you are fine, but I wonder if the cable or the port on the video card is causing an issue? It might be time to upgrade to a GTX 1050

What connection are you using from your video card? HDMI

It was a learning experience and definitely cheaper than buying a new one. Even at 10 years old, it runs pretty well with Mint on it.

I would run updates first, then try the driver again.

I was giving a Dell Touchscreen Inspirion One 2205 ?All-In-One several years ago. It initially had a problem where if the computer was turned off it wouldn't turn back on. I found a workaround by removing the CMOS battery and memory... then it would boot up just fine... at least until its...

Late as usual... Merry Christmas!

Yes Happy New Year! Some new year screenshots:

Yeah, there is always that! Run some updates.... Why didn't I think of that?

Yes I did a fresh install of Mint 19 I haven't upgraded to 19.1 yet. Everything is running fine so far. I can't believe those drivers can't do 4K The only other thing I can think of is researching or asking on reddit

Nice! My backgrounds are of my favorite games and my own game screenshots

Ha ha! :rolling: Did you notice they host all of the backgrounds? Even all the Mint versions...

I'm not sure what those optional sources are for??? I have both Graphics-drivers and graphics-drivers (Sources) checked Nope didn't forget about wallpapers. I think there is a folder in your /home that hosts wallpapers if you want them all in one place. but I like to use my own folder and just...

No problem Daniel... hang in there! There is light at the end of the tunnel. Are you rebooting between switching drivers?

I've always had to add that PPA if I want newer drivers. The stable drivers Mint provides are usually older because they are super-stable. Adding the PPA is a work-around to get any version you want to try. At your own risk of course. That is why I posted the guide. Its kinda confusing if you...

Daniel, you have this PPA added in Mint Software Sources right? ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa That PPA should update the driver manager with the newest available versions. http://www.gamersonlinux.com/forum/threads/updating-nvidia-drivers-mint.1746/

Hmm, what version of PlayOnMac are you using? 4.3.4 is the current version. Maybe you should try an older version like 3.0 or even 2.0 This is always a problem with CD ROM games. I think there is a DRM tied to the CD ROM and the game requires the disk in the drive to play. Sadly... Also...
