My retail Visiontek GF3 Ti200 card came clocked at 175/200. Using Coolbits, I oc'ed my card to 200/220 and I started to have very annoying problems. :disgust::D

First of all, whenever I would start up windows xp (pro), after logging in, my desktop would appear, and my monitor would for some reason go black and then show me my desktop again. It was as if my monitor was refreshing.

Secondly, sometimes after booting up my PC, the Windows XP intro screen would appear, and after doing so, the computer would completely freeze with a black screen. I would literally have to reboot my PC. After rebooting and entering windows, I would get a message that told me that the error was due to the Geforce 3 Ti 200 card.

Anyone have similar problems?, know how to solve them? I feel like I am not getting my money's worth,since these line of cards should easily be overclockable to Geforce 3 speeds!;)

I am running the card using the 23.11 detonators from Nvidias web site.
