Wouldn&#39;t surprise me



bigdawg, use your onboard graphics for god sakes. Doesn&#39;t nForce2 have an onboard GeForce class card?

nope.. no onboard gfx on his board (ive got the same board as him..)

if u can read this, is the bios and post etc viewable all except for in windows? restart the computer and as its starting press f8 then go to vga mode. it will reset the drivers to default and should undo ur overclock (if that is the problem).

Bigdawg, if you bother reading this, open PC in safe mode. Reverts to Window&#39;s crappy VGA drivers, then roll back drivers. You may have screwed up the Catalyst 4.3 install by having an antivirus on or something.

[atiVidia]

either that or he picked the drivers up from a bad place

or he OCed till it died

or... this onesseems to be the most plausible explanation: he shorted out a voltage control chip... bigdawg did u open ur case and mess around with ur card before this happened?

Did you submerge it in water to clean it?

[bigdawgfoxx]

orrr i tried to take the heatsink off to put some AS3 and it wouldnt come off and i squized the little things on the back like a mother fucker..

i told my friend it wouldnt work..sure neough it didnt...i got my old card in now but it installed TONS of spyware and shit..just from puttin in my other graphics card...it added a ton of stuff to favorties and its freaking me out..

i wont get the new one untill next week when I can contact newegg i guess..

but basicly the card dont work...just tons of fucking lines all through it and distorted colors

maybe i can get my money back or a replacement...9800Pro is cheaper then the 220 that I paid for this haha....i hope they will take it back its only been like 3 months or so..they should right? warranty is atl east a year huh...
