how bout u reply to the guy who is actually trying to help u :blink:
How about posting only in one place like gameworld. Movieworld, the lounge, and hardwareworld is overkill.
he's posting here cuz everyone's telling him it's a vd card prob. no prob man. i got the same card. apparantly no probs here. i keep my card nice and cool. i got like 7 fans in my comp! :lol:
now, let's c. from up screenshots, it's mostlikely that ur vd card is overheating. happened to my friend's computer. to check, easiest way is to open the case, and gently put ur finger on the heatsink of the gpu. if it's a bit burning, or let's say 35-40 deg' C, it's fine. if higher, it should be fine. if higher than 50 or 55, u might have some probs. turn off ur comp, and leave it off for a while. like 1 nite. with the case open and keep it cool by opening all the windows. try it again
if same, actually, do this first! go into ur vd card settings, and make sure it's not oced. and switch all the settings to default. then try it again. ur game is fine, most likely overheating. try those, and see wat u get.
u don't have to leave it open for a nite, just blow some air, and let it cool off for a few minutes
Try using different drivers.
Ive noticed drivers straight from the box are outdated.
If that dosnt help, check if the fan on your card is working propperly and their is no dust clogging it up.
or u could always try under-clocking
exactly. set them all the default. and yea. the driver out of the box sucks. mine was so old, it didn't even work on my comp for some reason. get the newest one from nvidia. it's like 52. somethingQuote:

when you spam the forum, posting questions in the majority of sections because you're too impatient, i'd say you don't deserve my respectQuote:

i agree especially some of the attitudes in them, he has also started a 3rd on the same thing, looking or drivers, as if its hard.
edit: to your problem, if it happens, dont alttab to the desktop, let it sit for a bit, up to a minute and see if it goes away itself, as the card may not be keeping up with the game, or the computer may not be keeping up.
also try sheep high fps
