Well, I overclocked my CPU, locked the PCI slots etc.
Loaded up WoW and now my graphics keep getting like flashes of white, as though the terrain is coming apart or something. Thing is, it only seems to be in WoW. CSS is fine, haven't really tried any other games. Any idea what it might be? I haven't overclocked my GPU and it's been at 42 C all the time. It's brand new, was fine yesterday. Put my CPU back to normal and it's still there :(

Well, just updated the drivers. Removed the Coolbits reg-entry which I put in anyway. Still only in WoW. Really strange, really annoying : /


Edit: Ignore this, i've just done the dumbest thing ever. I didn't save the changes in BIOS to reset the CPU back to 1.8ghz, it was still at 2.9ghz which is obviously unstable, or ran the northbridge too hot. Meh, i'm a moron ;) :o
