Just wanted to ask any of you bright fellas if my computer is crashing in this certain way is it the video card?
The screen freezes with little distortions on it (such as green pixels, tears in the images etc...)
The rest of the computer seems to be running fine, for example the radio i was listening to online continues to play for about 5 minutes b4 it all packed in.
I wanted to be sure this was the video card or the video cards memories fault b4 trying a mates out or if recommended going straight to XFX and asking them.
Its an XFX Geforce 8800GT Alpha dog for anyone interested.
If you think it may be another component at fault please tell me
im still quite new to all this and the computer runs fine for the m ost part, just crashing about once a day, not neccessarily when under high load.
