I have just got a MSI 6950 Frozr III back from RMA, I have 2.

When I got it back I plugged it in and sorted drivers, etc. Then I was getting hard lockups in SWTOR and BF3, I had to reset my PC.

I have tested my OC, GPUS Furmarks (only 10 mins) all ok. So I reinstalled Windows fresh.

Im still getting the lockups. Now more testing as follows.

Both cards I have swapped the slots, and still hard lockups.

I used just the RMA`d card and was getting Driver has stopped working error. I have tried the old card in on its own. And BF3 seems fine.

Could a faulty card cause this.

Im just lost and dont want to spend £10 to RMA it again.
