RMA'd

apologies. I didnt remember exactly what the threshold was. The temperature of the core was 40 degrees C. I saw 135 or 140 in the panel and I probably converted the 40 C to 100F in my head and then when I tried to go back and remember what the max temp was I guess I thought it was in F. No...

I have played Doom 3 for many hours with no problems, and my room was actually fairly cool (probably 65 degrees) at the time it happened. I guess it may have stressed my video card more than other games have, or just stressed it in different ways. I did check the nvidia gpu temp display right...

any other ideas?

but what if the voice acting was really REALLY bad... hahaha

reset my bios-no change. Unplugged and replugged in the card- no change. If it were a problem only with the video ram itself, why did it crash at the exact instant I hit the 'E' key to go into some complicated display within the video game. Also, why was the display garbled during the the...

Yesterday I downloaded the demo of Bet on Soldier, a crappy, futuristic first person shooter with mediocre graphics and laughably poor voice acting. There were a couple of other problems with the game: waypoints on the map which the characters were saying were yellow were actually green, and...

synth- thats awesome that you were able to hook it up to your projector with no problems. the picture looks really good. I have actually gone to avsforum and I have not really heard anything on specific settings people are using. I have only heard vague comments like 'i have gotten the dvi...

I have a geforce 6600gt and a sony high def CRT display with an HDMI input. My question- has anyone had any luck getting their video card to output a 1920x1080 signal to any HDTV's digital input and actually have it work? any make or model of video card or tv. Im just wondering if ANYONE has...

It happened once again just in case anyone was keeping track.

haha- same exact thing just happened 5 minutes ago while i was downloading somethin else. I guess I will have to put my motherboard in the corner for on a 5 minute power-deprived timeout. bad motherboard, bad...

It's been running fine...until the next time it does this. lol I took the calculated risk of being the early adopter of an unknown budget card just so I could get my Athlon 64 and PCI express. Since it was only 100 bucks I'm not too concerned it it turns out to be junk. If it were a $280 Asus...

as Peter Griffin would say- HOLY CRAP!! It worked!! Thank you Generalissimo. I have to admit I kind of blew your suggestion off, but it certainly did the trick. Everyone who's having this problem- just unplug the power cord from the back of your computer for five minutes and turn it back on...

will do. ill see how it goes

Installed Windows XP x-64 edition with the 64 bt Nvidia beta drivers, It recognized the LAN port and everything installed fine, but when I plugged in the ethernet jack, the same exact behavior happened again. So its not a firewall/driver/windows settings issue, its obviously a hardware problem...
