Help please.

I have two 3D Fuzion 7600gt cards setup in SLI mode, the system has been running fine since i set it up (about 3 weeks), however yesterday i installed the Warhammer Dark Crusade demo and the system has gone to pieces.

First thing that i noticed was lines / blocks on the screen in the demo and then it crashed. This had happend previously with the joint task force demo but was fixed with the reinstallation of directX.

When i reboot the pc behaves normally until i run a game, i have updated the graphics drivers and directX but this has not helped. TOCA3 plays fine then suddenly becomes jerky before stopping. If i am lucky i can get back to windows but the graphics are all messed up until i reboot.

If i dont run any games the system is perfect with no problems.

The system comprises of 3700+, asus A8N premium, 1gb ram, tagan SLI 530w PSU.

GPU 1 temp 1 = 47 centigrade
GPU 2 temp = 51 centigrade

any ideas.
 
Tried 3DMark 06

crashes with same graphical errors in the "arctic" section.

Looking on net there seems to be a load o problems with 7 series cards .... looks like mine are worthless too

:mad:
