Since i got my 6600GT, its been making these weird lines in games with good graphics, like NFSU2 and HL2 and the like... Heres a screenie to help:


(bottom right)

Ive tried NGO drivers, nvidia drivers, nvidia beta drivers, and the drivers that came on the install cd with the card.... anyone have any clue whats wrong?

PS:
Its not cooling issues, i just added 2 new 40mm fans to my card... and its only running at a max of 37C during gameplay

This appears in all games? Have you tried to underclock?

I haven't seen any problems with my 6600GT.. So take it to quarantee :P

Sp4rt4n

im not running anything except mcafee...

(click images for larger view)

wow... this is odd... i start up hl2 (garry's mod), and the first screenie happens, then i take the screenie, alt-tab, save it, and alt-tab back in and it was fixed (second screenie)
heres a screenie of HL2 (garrys mod):





Heres another ingame from hl2... its actually being good today, but heres when i reload (for those who havent played the game before, the ammo number is sposed to glow, but the lines above it shouldnt be there)



*Runs to get screenies of NFSU2*

This is weird... the same thing happened... i alt-tabbed and saved the screenie, and the lines went away...

Lines:



@Regeneration

These are the only two games that i have that does this.... Maybe its because of the graphics quality of them... i dunno...

I run CS, Rakion, bunches of HL1 Mods, different MMORPGS, Planetside, and none of them do this...

EDIT: Ok, today i get into rakion and it starts happening too, see:

Concepts

Well you can always RMA it if it still under warranty

Sp4rt4n

hmm... rma meaning what?

return it? i bought it online, but id prefer to figure out whats wrong with it rather than go through the hassle of returning it....

Dregnought

loks like its having trobles with glow effects.
I would return it ot the manufcator, its oversually not ment to do that, and there is no reason why it should.

Sp4rt4n

-.- man... alrighty, thanks

Pinnacle

Do you have things running in the background? that could sometimes cause blinking lines.

But, to be safe RMA it.
