There are not like artifacts? It's may be a cooling problem

I dont think its cooling issues, i just added 2 new 40mm fans to my card, plus my stock fan... and its only running at a max of 37C under stress

ok thats twice, please dont ask questions that have ALREADY BEEN ASKED.

It looks like something pops up in the background. Is it always happening or just on occasion?

actually lately i notice that its been coming and going... dunno, ill experiment a little tonight with some of the crap in the taskbar (i.e. windows updates, mcafee, etc)

Did you try the card in another system to see if the same thing happens?

October 25th, 2005, 01:44 AM

thats actually a good idea... i should try that...

*smacks forehead*

what quality have you got the drivers set to?

is the card getting to warm (80+ is too hot)

is the card losing power

that doesn't mean its not a cooling problem

every gpu has its own max temp,.. some are less refined cores and have probs at lower temps

is it agp?
is agp at 8x?
try it at 4x
try lowering memory to 333mhz
is it a via or nforce mobo?

its an nvidia mobo, agp is at 4x, but i can set it to 8x...

and how would i lower the memory, and would it make it run slower?
