Firstly, start your pc in safe mode (f8) on boot up.
This will start your pc in vga mode, and hopefully the lines are still there, which will indicate a faulty graphics card, if they aren't it may be a problem driver.
If no lines, go to Add/remove programmes and uninstal your graphics driver.
Re boot pc then when it finds your card make sure you point Windows to the folder in which you have saved the driver files.
The driver should then install, see if any change.
You may have to try some older drivers, as Nvidia can be awkward at times.
I have had varying problems with Nvidia and replaced with ATI cards with no problems.

- You can also click on Start, then Run and type in 'dxdiag' without quotes and let windows do a diagnostic video test.
