Have you overclocked the card or is it just getting old? Definitly something wrong with the video. Try reinstalling the game(probably won't fix it), but it worth a try.

That MAY be the answer, if he hasn't OCd it and it's still within warranty period.

I'm just guessing here, but a guy with an ancient 4200 who says his video card is "burnt up" OCd it to cause the "burning".

If he were to RMA that, he'd become a common thief and never be able to look in the mirror again for the cost of a very cheap video card.

My honor is worth more than $75 to me?
