Was playing Hitman blood money this afternoon, and well my screen goes blank and I then I smell a nice burning smell.....
Thats the time you can only look at the floor and cry?
tried the Pc 20 minutes after hoping.... and hoping but no display so chucked in a 1meg PCI S3 Trio and now im currently on an amazing 4 bit colour with
640x480 !
I dont even know how I got the 4bit lol
Im gonna assume it was due to the fact my POV 7800-512meg GTX was boiling hot from 2 hours of hitman.... guess the shutdown temp feature didnt kick in, that super silent 80mm fan I always suspected was too silent! but it Proberly didnt help that I had bit of dust in the fans also. Gonna increase my 120mm fans to faster speeds (there still silent) and use more Air cans in future to get rid of dust/dirt.
Heres hoping Point Of View can get my Card sorted soon, lucky they got 3 year warranty on it
Anyone know how good Point of Views RMA/Support service is ?
