Problem with pixelation on my GeForce6200 OC

willmon21 · October 11th, 2009, 05:54 AM

Well I have tried everything I can think of including downloading omega 3rd party drivers and it still hasn't corrected the issue. The only thing I can do is to decrease the hardware acceleration down and it gets rid of most of the pixelation. Does anyone know what would be the best driver for me to get to get rid of this pixelation?

Are you sure it is a driver problem? overheating or bad memory on the video card can cause graphic issues also.

It is the same thing I was thinking too. But BFG assures me that it isn't the issue as I sent it in for an RMA and they said it had bad memory on it and they sent me a new one and still the same thing. I called them and they said your chipset is probably not compatible with it because the computer is so old well that can't be the issue because I just got a newer computer recently and it is still doing it. And the card is overclocked by default.

Well that could cause the artifcts but may as well check out temps anyways....

CPUID

Run something graphical to put stress on the card and it will record the highest temp.

It started at 94 degrees farenheit and then got up to a maximum of 127 degrees farenheit playing fable the lost chapters at full resolution and all graphics options at max. Isn't 94 degrees farenheit for the card when it is doing nothing a little too hot?

Those temps are perfectly fine......

So then what should I do? I had someone that went to school for over 5 years to get some 3rd party drivers and I did. They are the omega drivers and sometimes when the computer first starts I get a big blur of the graphics and it looks like a crazy blur of the complete desktop with varied colors then it corrects itself. What drivers would you recommend for a HP Compaq DC7100?

Try from here....

Drivers - Download NVIDIA Drivers

I had the latest drivers directly from nvidia and they did the same thing. I even had a older version directly from nvidia that bfg recommended me to get and they still made my computer the same it was now. But now that I have this new computer maybe those drivers might work I just have to know what is the best version from nvidia for this card.

The only way you can find out which is the best version for 'that exact card' is to hit google and search around..... Or you can download the latest for the 6 series gpu's.....
