Graphics card severe problem!
Hey everyone,
I recently cleaned my computer, I took all necessary precautions, I removed my graphics card (Radeon 9800XT) and cleaned it with compressed air. After reinstalling it I had the graphics problem.
Since then I have tried the following:
- Re-seating the graphics card
- Swapping the power input to the graphics card
- Changing the voltage to the graphics card in the BIOS
- Removing objects from my computer (in case it was an overburdened power supply problem)
- Changing graphics card features on desktop (I have found that changing the hardware acceleration slider helps minimally, turning off write combining works VERY well but the problem still exists when it is turned back on.)
Can anyone PLEASE help? I paid a fortune for this graphics card when it was released, I don't want to write it off!

A moment of silence for the damned card.
If it's under warrantee, go for it.
