flashing lots/graphic errors in neighborhood view
Xylune:
What I'm asking is whether it's possible that my power supply's 12v rail is bad, as it was the cheapest 450w supply we could find. I know that a 450w power supply with a 12v rail should be sufficient, I just want to know if it's possible that the rail in mine is bad and thus not distribuing the power correctly. It's the only explanation I have left for why my new vid card causes the monitor to go black whenever I try to run video games. I don't want to look into possibly throwing more money away on another new graphics card if all I have to do is purchase a higher end power supply to fix the problem, if that makes any sense.
ancienthighway:
Did you try the video card drivers?
caffeinated.joy:
OK, I see what you're saying now. My apologies. Sometimes my brain fails me.
I would do as ancient suggested first and see if rolling back your drivers to an earlier version corrects the problem. If it doesn't, then yes, it could be that you have a faulty power supply.
Xylune:
Yes, as I said in the updated post, one of the first things I tried was downloading and installing older drivers to see if the problem was in the newest one. Thank you for the advice, though.
caffeinated.joy:
*reads back* Duh...sometimes I'm not too quick on the uptake. Sorry about that.
