ok so I am new at this but want to figure this out
first off (I know if shouldn't say this but) I built the comp myself and it has an onbroad Ethernet and no wireless but

So here is the problem,
everytime I network out in any way from terminal(with things like sudo aptget) to just clicking on modzilla I get a screen with diagonal line going a stair type direction it locks up my keyboard up and mouse and I cant exit I am hopeing it is not system but havent checked that yet my and dont think I have the equipment to do so

Obviously you have Mint installed - presumably 17.1?

Does "i network out in any way from terminal to modzilla" mean when you attempt to run Firefox?
Which graphics card are you using?

BTW A sentence begins with an upper case character and ends with a full stop.
In addition 'i' is usually spelt as 'I'.

Almost certainly a graphics problem.

You need to use a standard nvidia driver and blacklist the nouveau driver.
If you were using vanilla Debian, this would definitely be straight-forward
since this stands a good chance of working, have a look at https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers

Note that you may have to press CTRL+ALT+F1 to get a command entry screen.

We need to see the output of this command after you CTRL+ALT+F1
for starters.

Is the driver available in "Additional Drivers"?

http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree8...rtedchips.html indicates that a GeForce 6150SE nForce 430 is a "Legacy card" and is supported by the nvidia 304.125 driver.

This seems fair enough since Wikipedia says this card was first launched in 2006.
