7900gt issues
Dervacumen:
I love old time games as much as anyone here. But I do know (think) some of you play new games too.
I've had a seriouslt annoying issue with the 7900gt. Specifically the MSI nx7900gt, though the problem isn't exclusive to MSI.
I've gone through 3 cards now and they all produce the same artifacts.
Anyone else having this problem? I'm running X2 3800 on an M2N-SLI Mobo w/1 GB. Thoughts appreciated, I just need to get running.
Tks,
Derv

What is the problem you're having?

Drivers?
(answer crafted to give as much detail as the OP)
Dervacumen:
I've tried all the newest drivers, updated the BIOS, swapped cards into a different computer, tried differnet cards in my computer, different PS,...all the things you would normally try in troubleshooting.
I finally got a chance to talk with an MSI tech (who was very nice BTW) and he determined that my NX9700gt was faulty after I mentioned there were several docmented problems with this card. Then he upgraded me to an nx7900gtx (which is much more expensive but takes two slots on my MB). I don't really care for or need a GTX, but whatever. I 'm just wondering if anyone else has this issue?
The new card should be here in a few of days.
I'll let you know if it works or not.
BTW, there have reportedley been issues with the onboard RAM, and the new 7900GTX he is sending has the new RAM modules which may fix the problem. Just an FYI.
