Everytime I try to start a 3d application, it all goes tits up, black screen with sound still going for a few seconds. I'll then have to power down the pc, and try to reboot. Most of the time with the reboot I just get a black/not quite as black flickering going on. Is there any way of actually running a program to say if shit is borked or what? Hopefully not a hardware issue as I seriously can't afford to replace anything, and this is all happening just in time for the BFBC2 beta, fantastic

VISTA!!! I told you it would get you... You could try the restore that cow said. But if that fails have you got a spare GFX card lying around to use as a tester? an a lighter note maybe i could come round one time and finger you in the trumper? might even tongue your bot if i get going
