Hello guys,
since yesterday I have problems with my (apparently) video card.
Yesterday I tried to play MW2, while after one minute of playing, game crashes, graphics look totally destroyed and I had to open task manager to end the game. I went after restarting to a private match, where it was all strange (letters were green, etc).
The steps I followed.
1. Restart
2. Uninstall Nvidia drivers 275.33 ->Restart
3. Install WDM drivers 270.61
4. Uninstall Steam -> Re-install steam + game

Nothing seemed to help.

Today, I was chilling on my sofa when I saw the screen switching off, restart aero in basic mode, and then all good again. A message appeared:

First I'd run stock clocks and try the 266.58 drivers. If that doesn't work, I'd try to reseat the video card and run memtest on your RAM.

I have already did memtest and changed the gpu place on motherboard putting it in the second slot.
Ran 3Dmark11, and I noticed some green lines (diagonally on the screen).

Now I just installed W7 on another driver and I m going to test it soon
