Solved MSI GT610 DVI-D port has red overlay but VGA ok
Hi
As the title really, had the DVI port blown? Its still under 3 year warranty but VGA port works fine. At first I thought it was my Dell monitor until I tried a spare Viewsonic where the display was all blue.
So I began testing with the VGA port and both monitors were ok. Have taken out the card and replaced with a 9500 GT and that seems ok if a bit hot because the fan isnt working that well. Should I return the GT610?

Since you tried two different monitors I would say the port is bad.
Have you tried uninstalling/re-installing drivers? Another cable to try?

Looks like the GT610 port, I have put my old GT9500 back in and its working fine, trouble is that over heats.

There is the old open the case and put a fan or hair dryer with no heat on it trick.
Hair dryer a bit noisy though.

Yes its ok when the onboard mini fan is running, but it tends to stall due to dust.
