Whats wrong with my graphics card? (screens included)

[EDDS]

i've been having some trouble with my gfx card for a few months now and it only really makes my pc unusable when i play games.

thats what happens :S just huge strange objects messin with my graphics

i also get these strange lines on my desktop now and again

its a atix1900x (card in sig spec)

what temps does ATiCCC say?

if it displays voltage what does that show?

 

[EDDS]

46ºC

where would i find volts?

 

[Pulse]

Well temps aren't bad, I'm not sure were voltage is in CCC, if at all. Used it once hated it, found alternatives since.

Corruption in windows like that is a memory prob (on the card), and the stretched poly's etc... in games is a core problem, so id say its time for a new card as that ones buggered imo.

the x1950 series seems to be having a lot of bugs atm with the new drivers, try rolling back.

Does it happen in BIOS ?

Does it happen in BIOS ?

no it don't happen in the BIOS.

i will be getting a 8800 soon when the new cards are released, wondered if there was a temp fix tho.

This may be the oddest question ever, but does it do it more when there's trees around?

An old Radeon of mine never batted an eyelid at anything, even when clocked stupid. BUT, one whiff of a forrest stage in a racing game or a heavily forrested area in an RTS, and it downloaded it's brownware, and went completely mad, much like your screeny....even on stock clocks.
