Slight Tearing with BFG 7800 GTX 256mb

Hi guys, i recently purchased a BFG 7800 GTx and even at stock speeds when playing counterstrike 1.6 (not source) at the bottom across the screen i get a tear all the way across the screen i have the drivers that came with the disk (i tried installing the new drivers and i get a error saying no Bios detected?) so could it just be a outdated driver?

* note: my image quality is on max although i don't have any antialiasing on or anisotropic filtering, but for a game such as Counterstrike 1.6 i wouldn't need it as it's hardly gfx card intensive

hmm i'l give it a go but the ones on the nvidia site i try installing it and get a error saying "no bios detected" or something like that, any ideas?

have you downloaded the correct drivers??? that sounds like the error you get when trying to use the forceware version for the mobile go 7800gtx

hmm you could be right, any direct link to the correct drivers? and i have riva tuner with v sync off in both applications anyone used or using the 83.40 drivers?

but doesn't turning vsync on limit fps?

na it's not, i installed the 82.12 drivers and this seemed to sort it out, getting 96%above 40fps in the F.E.A.R stress test with no A.I or aniso
