One day I turned on my computer and i started getting lines n stuff all over. I restarted and now i got it during my post. I emailed Ati about it and they said my ramdac was screwed. I gave up on it for a while. Today i decided to mess around with it, and i installed the drivers, and it was ok, but.....i still got the lines. Installed powerstrip, moved the clock down to 144/144 and all was good. Now, when i restart i get the lines again, but once i get into windows and run it down to 144/144 im good. Games run good everything is good.

Anybody have a clue what it is and if there is anything i can do?

Right now im running a Celeron 266 @ 426 2.3v Radeon 32mb DDR @ 144/144 64mb SDR @ 3-3-3

THANX!

O right....i just did some 3dmark2000 testing, and scored 2196 with my card @ 144/144......i just ran it @ 171/144 and got 2198. That is with the drivers that came with the card...Im going to install the ones i have downloaded and see what i get then. 171mhz core gives me some artifacts.
