Well, I can't figure it out, so I will ask youse guys .........

When I bring up my home page, or ebay, or lots of sites, the pictures look
like mosaics. They are recognizable, but appear as small chunks, like a
mosaic.

I went to control panel - display - and went through the stuff there about
the drivers and updating. It said it had the latest driver, and that it was
functioning properly.

Well, it isn't.

Am I missing something simple, or is my video card shot?

You browser options probably have a check for "show image placeholders",
an option that allows the display to forego downloading images and makes
for faster browsing. In IE, it is in tools/internet options/advanced.
In Mozilla, in Edit/Preferences/Privacy Security/Images, there is a
button to choose "do not download any images". Sounds like you have
placeholders displaying and no images downloading.
