Whats with all the god damn TDP issue crap which they still havent fixed since the 100 series forceware? Everygame I play baring WOW gives me a black screen and usually crashes and vista reports the graphics card driver having to restart. Theres a thread on the nvidia forums with 25000 other users reporting the same problem -.-

Next payday im going to buy an ATI card and sell my 8800GT tbh
 
I would try a FRESH install of windows, its not Nvidia's faulty that you are experiencing these problems..

this is my 3rd install of vista 64 in 4 days mate

card is an 'ocuk' 8800GT 512mb which infact is a jetway

Nothing in my system is overclocked at all and theres supposedly no compatibility issues with the kit im using. Does exactly the same thing on my mates pc. Really irritating.
 
im gonna give this rivatuner thing a go and see if it is the fan speed. Tried all the 169.xx series but nothing before it
 
That rivatuner thing works lol. Just loaded crysis demo up and its the first time its EVER played on my computer. Well impressed with it, thanks guys :D
 
What are your temps when playing? I used to get this all the time with company of heroes and just minor corruption in CoD4.

Now this im not sure but I couldnt hear the fan going. Now I can hear it properly and just went from start to finish on the crysis demo so its defo sorted now.
 
not tried it yet but tbh I think thats another problem entirely where my mobos dimm 4 slot doesnt work properly as each of my ram sticks works fine in any order with no errors in memtest but wont all work with each other.

CPU-z and everest say they all have the same serials and week manufacturing date etc so they are all identical lol
