Your card is dead.
That about sums it up.
Solution: Get a new one.

Yes, it's dying. Eventually you won't be able to boot up your pc unless you have integrated video.

oh crap.. i've got a tournament this week-end..
Re: Problem with my x1900gt
It isn't necessarily dead.
I've seen problems like that with LCD displays, but the problems go away when you connect a CRT display. I suspect that the problem mat lie in the monitor definition (misleadingly called monitor drivers), not the graphics card drivers. I seem to recall that it was something to do with the relationship between refresh rates and resolution.
Try lowering the resolution to see if things improve. Once you can see what you are doing, make sure you've got the correct "drivers" for the monitor. Assuming they are wrong and you can replace them with the correct ones, you should then be able to increase the resolution.
Of course, if lowering the resolution doesn't improve things then it may well be a dying graphics card as others have suggested.
Re: Problem with my x1900gt
Well, i tried on CRT but i still have the same problem.
I don't understand, i bought it 5 months ago .. i never O/C my GPU and it was very well cooled by a 120mm fan.
I guess it was my first and last ATI GPU..
Anyway thanks you guys for the fast answers :sleep:

Re: Problem with my x1900gt
Seedler,how did it go down with your Nthing gc (A canadian that doesn't buy ATI ? Can't believe it !:P )
Look at this beauty which will be mine when it'll be officially released in its Ultimate edition (Passive cooling):

Avivo HD= gpu support for VC-1 :blink:
Go for the Caribou (As we call Ati ),Seedler
Re: Problem with my x1900gt
Lol? You do know that even the 8800GTS outperforms the HD2900XT right?
Re: Problem with my x1900gt
Lol indeed ? :)
I'm talking about the 2600XT which has hardware VC-1 support .That's what I'm interested in since I don't play very much.This function has not been implemented in the 8800 or the 2900.
And stop looking so much at framerate numbers.Ati's rendering method is far better than Nvidia's.
