I just got this card and got everything installed and started up world of warcraft. Then the screen just went black and the game was still playing has anyone run into this problem too? I can hit alt+f4 and the game closes and everything just goes back to working.

Hello,

Post your system specs (RAM,CPU,MB,PSU)

Include the brand and wattage of the PSU.

ok i think i fixed it was running 1 gig of ram and i had sent off a 512 stick back to be replaced came in last night and put it in and wow has wrked fine. prolly try and get the max on ram in a couple months, prolly wrk even better. my specs is a amd anthlon xp 3200+, gigabyte k7 series mobo, 1.5gb ram, 550watt psu. I think the vid card really needs over 1.5 gb of ram to get the most out of it will upgrade and let yall know.
