Are you sure the card isn't overheating through overclocking etc?

Black squares sounds like a memory problem, although it could also has as been pointed out be a driver issue.

hey deadman! I'm pretty sure it has something to do with overheating, the graphics card i mean.

BTW..This should be in TECH TALK!!

Hi ok but i phoned realy good pall of mine he is pro in pc stuff and he said its a memory problem black squares he said i should find patches or drivers for it to make it stop do you maybe know where?
And i don't think its overheating my card has that cooling fan so i don't think so any way thx.

If he said it was a memory problem then just how can that be sorted with drivers? Unless he means a texture memory allocation defect or something. Try raising your AGP Aperture in the BIOS to something like 128 see if that helps.

Oh and turn off AGP 4x and fast writes whilst you are there.

Since you have 256MB RAM I don't think it's a memory problem of the pc and for sure not the graphic memory as I only have 32MB on my GeForce... but It's a GeForce at least... try changing the AGP Aperture like Trotterwatch said... and how smart is your friend really? I mean if he mixes memory with patches and drivers... :sly:

When you put in the new card, did you remove the drivers for the old card before you pulled it out?

You have said that the card has a fan on it. Have you checked to make sure that the fan is actually working?

I still think, as seems to be the general concensus you have either an overheating problem, or just plain defective memory.

You should be able to get it replaced from wherever you got the card from, should that be the case.

Overclocking means that for example the graphics chip is going faster than it really can..... could you have changed anything that may be something like this? do you use a tweak utility to configure the graphics?

Squall : How do you run a chip faster than it can run?

You probably meant to say "running a chip faster than the manufacturer's specifications"

I too would suspect the drivers as a primary problem source... but if past drivers that used to work don't work anymore and programs that used to work properly have problems with known good drivers, it might be time to consider the possibility of a non-fatal hardware failure.

Ehm...Right :) but any way i did not overcloak my card 100% maybe it has some kind of conflict with my chipset intel 845?

Sure Moonlight, but If ive understood everything right u get the system to "belive" that the graphic chip is running faster than it really is... or am I just screwing around here?
Anyways... I don't know if its a problem with the chipset, but I wouldn't think so... most likely its a driver problem
