    Exclamation Nvidia 7800GTX OC (512MB)

     
    Alright guys as you know Nvidia has new GFX Drivers has anyone else had a problem with them I'll be playing WoW (World Of Warcraft) and try to ALT+TAB out to veiw a Instant Message and like it wont go so I will close WoW out and try to exit,......However it looks all scrambled like its 500 Degrees and about to fry but I check the temps and its at 70 c my GFX card is a Nvidia 7800GTX OC (512MB) Pci-e x16 and Im afraid if its not the drivers that the card is bad and I paid alot for it so I figured I would ask you guys seeing as how I have always gotten good advise from u all.

    *edited for added comment*


    After I reboot everything seems to run fine again

    finding the right drivers is a black art.

    if you're having issues with this set.

    uninstall them. run driver cleaner (read the instructions) and try a different set.

    the latest release are betas and the supposed whql 84.21 set seemed to cause a lot of problems for a lot of people.

    i have the 83.90's in here and no problems but i don't play wow.........
