Graphics Bugs - I'm Seeking Help

Morphboy · 01-14-2006, 02:20 PM

I have all these bugs on my system, could you please sort things out for me? They've been there since the very beginning, at least the first bug. And later on it has just gotten worse..

I've got an SLI/Crossfire thing running. here are my specs

AMD Athlon 64
512x2 DDR Ram (400mhz)
Geforce 6600 GT (x2)
200 gb harddrive, fully working.
some nForce motherboard? asus sli deluxe or something..

I think it's the graphics card doing all this though! My screen is perfectly fine and it's a new 19" LCD screen!

1) Bug One: Triangles Stretching to Infinity (Geometry Corruption)
I have checked the web for answers but nothing helps. I've tried to download all kinds of Forceware versions but nothing helps! Some versions just make the corrupted graphics flicker abit. There is an example of this bug that is named "HalfLife2_one.png" on my uploads.

2) Some games like Halflife 2, well mostly all games that are new and have nicer graphics than Counter-Strike 1.6, has this strange bug.. All the textures have small blue lights on them, everywhere. I can't explain, but if you look hard at the Halflife 2 thumbnail you will see some blue lights at the floor.

3) Small red-colored pixels.
For a couple of months now, I have been getting a new bug.. the color black turns into a red pixel everywhere! check red_pixel.png for details

Please help!

Wrong forum?

And that looks like it's overheating or the memory on the card is damaged.

The others might be true, but I really doubt the triangles stretching to infinity can be overheating. :/

And the Triangles are my REAL problem.

I had that problem on an mx440, it was due to either the core or memory having over heated which had damaged the card.

If it's only happening in that game, try updating the drivers, or down grading the drivers.

Overheating is the problem, i have seen this before in SLI-configs.
