Recieved my PC last week and very happy with it, as good as i hoped for.

Only had 1 small problem, my graphics card wasnt working properly, didnt have CCC installed and the whole screen was quite pixalated and very bright (monitor brightness settings wernt an issue.)
Had to unninstal 'microsoft visual C++' for some reason so that it would install, think its a common problem, as a little heads up if anyone has the same issue.
I could now change the resolution and it wasnt pixalated anymore :)

But the screen was still unreadable, grainy and bright as the best way to descibe it lol. Tried all the obvious things until using a HDMI cable (rather than VGA) from gfx card to monitor, all is good now and wow HD... i love HD :D
Probably thinking why wasnt i using HDMI in first place, its coz i didnt have a spare HDMI cable :) only my old trusty VGA.
So all good now, just took a few hours to work it out, thought id just post here as a lil heads up to others that may experiance the same problem. Save you a few hours :)
