Basically, one day my computer started showing weird green "static" on the left side. Two days later, the entire screen was going haywire when I turned the computer on. I know the PC functions fine since I can just barely "see through" the blurry imagery to see what I usually see when I boot up and I can even sign in with my password.
My model is a Acer Aspire 5600U which I know is an All in One and not a laptop, but I do know (at least I think) that the all in ones use cards like the laptop models. I know this used a GeForce GT 630M, but I think i'd like to replace it with something more powerful. My budget range can be anywhere between $100 to $300, though if possible, i'd like to remain under $200 (i'm willing to look at a number of options). I'm not expecting high performance gaming, but if I can get something pretty above average, i'm willing to settle.
The issue is that I've never had to do anything like this before and i'm a total newb when it comes to this stuff. I don't know where to start looking for these kinds of graphics cards (all I see are the larger ones for towers when I look) and don't even know what kind of model i'm looking for. I'd be grateful for as much help as possible.
