Video card problem

I have asked elsewhere in the forum for my video card problem, maybe someone here can help me...
I have an onboard video card on my PC-Chips motherboard (a SiS 620) that uses RAM to generate video memory. My problem is, when I activate my card, "trash" characters appear everywhere on the screen, making letters in DOS (text mode) ununderstandable. In Windows, "shadows" of the windows I open appear (they are lines in the shape of the window). Do you know any solution to this problem?
