Yes..and no.

My frame rate improved but I am getting flashing and degardation of my cockpit after a few minutes of flying.

After a while it looks as if there is either a "nano invasion" happening, or that my cockpit is rusting out...looks awful.

I wasn't able to follow the exact order of re-installing Directx, then the 30.82 drivers and then renaming the folder as I lost my internet connection last night and couldn't see the exact order Blackfalcon4 was suggesting I perform the attempted fix.  I did get the 30.82 drivers loaded and reinstalled DirectX...just not in the sequence suggested.

Dunno...I will try it again tonight.

Video card is 2 days old.

It is a GeForce 4 Ti4200 (64DDR)

The processor is overclocked, but not by much apparently.

Fan is there and working.

I have not had my case on it at all...I leave it off.

Dx version is 8.1

Can be a faulty memory on the card IMO.
try without any overclock.

try artifact tester : http://ads.ad-flow.com/?DC=Crucial-125&DH=Y&TARGET=_blank

Degradation like that is usually a sign of overheating or power supply not being strong enough on the rail.

You can get rid of the blurry text by removing anisotropic filtering and setting anti-aliasing to 0.

I prefer to see a few jagged edges instead of reading the text through yesterdays beer bottle bottom.

I replaced the power supply about 2 months ago..had no problems like this with the old video card (GeForce 2 MMX) after I replced it.

All of the problems I am having are new since the installation of the GeForce 4 vid card.
