Default Deskpro 2000

School I work for has some Deskpro 2000s donated. In one that had W95, I
reformatted the the hard drive and put W98 on it. Couplee of things.

1) I get this line across the screen. Shall I assume that the video card
may be on its way out?

2) After installing the Ethernet Controller I can get on the Internet, but
the the MSN.com screen seems to be lacking some of its vibrancy. Like not
all the colrs are coming through. I am able to get everything from 256
colors to true color on the settings, so that's not the problem.

What brand of monitor? Describe the line, i.e., color, size, verticle or
horizontal, location on screen, etc.
