hi,
hope somebody can offer some advice. Ihave a quad core pc(amd phenom9550)motherboard is gigabyte GA-M57SLI-S4 with 4 gig of ddr 2 mem and a xfx 9600gt 512 meg (pcie express). Everything ran fine till weekend, the pc started locking up when switched on it would get to the desktop then just freez.I formatted the c:drive and did a fresh install, added all updates and now the games will start but after about 30 seconds or so i will loose the monitor display its as if the card just shuts down. There are no events showing in the system logs, when running futuremark everything is fine i also have tried installing the latest graf drivers from nvida, but still the same (THE O/S is windows xp black edition and runs fine on other systems ) could somebody offer any advice have tried everything and have even reseated the graphic card and memory im now starting to assume theres a fault with the card ( the only other thing is the o/s froze once on install but resumed on restart and everyting else works fine please .................HELP
