Built a new system for a friend from scratch but for some reason it has had problems where games have a black screen and you have to alt-tab out.

After a format, Source works fine but Test 2 on 3DMark 05 after it has loaded it goes straight to a black screen (You dont see any of the test at all). When the computer restarts it pops up with the box saying: 'Your computer has had a serious error' with the send error report button.

The system is:

Core 2 Duo 6300
Gigabyte GA 965P-DS3
2GB Geil 800mhz Ram
Ati Radeon X1950Pro
Onboard Sound

I know there are drivers for AMD Dual Cores but what about Intel Dual Cores?

Thanks

Just moved the card into my computer which is a Opty 146 and it has just done the same thing so I think the gpu is DOA (well not dead just ******)

PC Parts seem more and more crap nowdays - Built another system for a friend two months ago and the ram and board are playing up
