Since I got this card I have been getting this problem which the links show.

This show two rows of letters if you look closely you'll see a big difference, it looks worse without seeing it thru a screen shot.

Look at the brown boxes, on the right side of each box the upper part is shifter a little bit to the left.
Now take a look at the story box, the upper part looks like it got shifted to the right.

When text enters the very top part of the screen, this includes monster names that appear up there to, the text gets ghosted a little or corrupted. Still readable but makes it look messy.

The weirdest thing about all this is it's only at the top part of the screen and only when played full screen, if in a window all symtoms dissapear.

I have reinstalled diablo II: LOD, I have tried turning off 3D perspective and lighting. I also have AA turned off. I have tried several different version of the detonator drivers, currently using 12.41.

I thought geforce cards where the best bug free for games?
I'm not seeing this. Also I noticed an odd bug in the desktop, when my cursor changes from a hand back to cursor real quick, the cursor will corrupt for a split second, just a minor issue, but still. The drivers have been around for a very long time, they should be very solid and few if any bugs.

Right now I haven't found anyone else that has this problem and fixed it. I would like to get this problem fixed.

I know this is not the game, because when I had my Matrox G400 I never seen any of these problems. And a majority of gamers us nvidia products, I would think others would of seen this problem, no?

Thanks :)
