GF2 MX400 prob

[Sipheren]

I have a Leadtek GF2 MX400 and it has been subjected to a fair bit of O/Cing, the highest it ever got was 260/180...about 3 weeks ago it started to get a weird prob, as soon as I turned on the computer artifacts came all over the screen, the text that shows you PC stats was all jumbled and crazy stuff like that, windows was the same and the drivers no longer recognised the card, so I replaced it with my old TNT2 until the GF4 MX440 arrives, but I am curious to what had happened to the GF2 and if I can fix it or not as it was a good little card...

thx

I'd say that the core on your mx400 may have been pushed too far. There have been a few ppl just lately giving the same kinda symptons, so there is either a virus goin round affectin cards !!! or u lot just push em too far :P

Have you tried (If you are able to) lowering the speed of you GPU and Memory back to stock speeds? If you have and it didn't help, I'd say your card has died of old overclocking age. :cry:

yeah I put it back and even under clocked it, still no good, I think it can go back in the box for spare parts now...

thx for the help

No problem, sorry for your loss.
