Dead?
« on: February 26, 2007, 07:30:04 PM »
As of the past 2 weeks my game has been totally screwed...I play for 5-10 minutes and all of a sudden the spikes come....I'm using the right drivers.

Judging from these photo's does anyone have any idea whats going on?  Is my vid card dead?

I think you just found the Time Machine, or a Hyprodrive warp zone to get to other planets in one week.

Is my vid card dead



Yes... My card did the same thing a few weeks ago.... It was over heating, the fan wasn't running up to speed. Tried a new fan... but it was to late. Ran to hot to long...

Got a new card.... all is good again.

I just opened up my PC and pulled out the card...the freaken fan was filled with more dust than you could ever believe would accumulate back there...Anyways, cleaned the dust out with compressed air, put the card back in...Running a little better, but its still spiking.  Guess its time for a new card.

I only have a PCI slot.  Comp is 766mb of RAM.  Right now im using a Nvidia Geforce5200 fx PCI 128mb card.  What would you recommend buying?

It looks like you are just short of plaid on the ludicrous speed meter. :confused:
