More problems

[Christopher Low 5,332]

My PC is back home, but I am now experiencing graphics problems. There are numerous shimmering pixels flashing all over the screen. I am using a 128Mb ATI Radeon 9800 Pro graphics card, and this problem did not exist before I sent the PC to be repaired :-fumeThe screenshot illustrates the problem.The graphics look even worse in Deus Ex : Invisible War. In fact, they look absolutely dreadful, with hundreds of shimmering chunks of graphics garbage scattered all over the screen.Why is this happening to me ? :( Chris Low.

Chris Low,Your discription of pixels flashing all over the screen sounds exactly like what hapend to me when I over cloked my graphics card much too much. But you use aTuner which dus not suport over cloking! so it carnt be that!Bisyds, your snap shot loocs like nuthing I ever seen bifor!Trust you to hav sumthing weerd.Hav you tryed giving your PC a jental but ferm thump with your hand?It worked on the apolow mition to the moon when there PC acted up.Sory I carnt help, I would if I could but I carnt so I wont.glidernut

Glidernut,I don't know where you get your information from, but I DON'T use aTuner !As for my graphics problem, I have been surfing through the Sapphire forums (since my Radeon 9800 Pro is a Sapphire Atlantis), and it seems that a LOT of people are suffering from graphics corruption with these cards, including those who have been using them without problems for weeks or even months previously. I have uninstalled and re-installed the graphics drivers, but this made no difference.It's possible that the graphics card is faulty, and will need to be replaced. Of course, that will leave me with a PC with no graphics card. Yes, you think correctly. That will leave me with a non operational PC......AGAIN :-fumeAnyway, I have to go now. I need to consult my crystal ball to determine when my current run of bad luck will end.Chris Low.
