I have a EVGA 7900gt something or other that I bought a year or so back. When I bought it the card worked perfectly. But now whenever I play 3D games i get random graphic spikes. When no 3D game is being played I get wrong colored pixels all other the place. It's not my monitor, at least I don't think it is, because I hooked up different monitors to my PC to test it.
I tried downloading and installing semi-recent drivers from the Nvidia site. All that did was screw with my computer making it work like poop. So is my card just dying, or maybe just got struck with a retard-stick? I'm planning on building a new computer eventually so I'm really hoping not having to buy anything new for this PC... I guess I'm trying to get get suggestions on how to fix this issue with out doing anything to drastic. Anything would be helpful, and thanks in advanced. (I'll take some screen shots and post them asap to give a visual of my problem).
[on a side note - can some one direct me to a forum page to ask where i might be able to find some kind of software that could simulate a lan connection between PCs using an internet connection as a link. Some kind of virtual sever thing. ]
