well i didnt know where to put this in, so i put it in video...
basically, my computer wont start up at all, and i have no clue why. i have my vid card (9800pri flashed to XT)at about 415-355 right now, and ive been changing it around trying to find the best possible speed with no artifacts. my a64 2800+ is overclocked to 2050 mhz, and runs no hotter than 45c after playing a game. last night i was playing call of duty, when my game froze up on me.it wasnt going anywhere anytime fast, so i decided to reboot the system.on bootup, i get artifacts, and in windows i get artifacts now. my screen basically looks messed up all over. so i dropped the speed of my vid card to around 405-350 to see if that would clear things up... on reboot, i still get them. its late right now, and my roommates are pretty much alseep, so i didnt want to bother them trying to fix my comp. so i wait for the morning. bad idea, because now, it wont even turn on. i know its getting power since the motherboard power light goes on, but thats all that happens. it just doesnt do anything after that. if anyone has any idea why, please let me know. specs are in my sig, and my mobo is an asus k8v-se deluxe. its not my power, since i am getting power to the mobo, and because the psu is only like 5 days old.
HELP!!! i need to get this thing running!
