First off my system configuration: WinXP Pro; AMD Athlon 2000+, 512mb ram, 80 gb HD, and MSI nforce2 K7ngl.

My desktop has been under a rash of attacks lately. I've cleaned up viruses, cookies, spyware, adware, and checked my ports. Everything was fine until Norton antivirus detected a slew of viruses and deleted them. Didn't really think it was a big deal until the whole screen went blank...then the screen was gone. Literally the monitor cannot detect a video signal.

So is there a fix for this. Since the video is integrated can I just add a videocard to solve the problem or is my motherboard fried.

Have I been hacked? or have my efforts to protect my pc failed?

Thanks in advance if you have any suggestions or answers.
