Hi,
Basically when I installed the graphics card, the white horizontal lines came on the screen (including the bios), but when i installed the latest drivers from the ATI site for the card, the lines stopped appearing and everything was fine. I even played GTA 4 and did not have any lagg.
Then I went into the ATI CCC and changed overclocking settings because the card was at 66C. And suddenly horizontal lines and random stuff came on the screen and BSOD. It said something about memory management but i couldn't read the rest.
I tried removing all drivers using Driver Sweeper and re installing which did not work. Also when i boot up my computer two big thick white lines come up when loading BIOS (and even in safe mode) and I got this card from my cousin because he bought a new one and he did say there were some issues. My previous card was a ATI HD 5570.
Sorry for the long post, but is there anything I can do or is it because the card is just dead and there is no use? I have got a picture of the horizontal lines but i don't know how to post it.
Thanks,
Harry
