Ok... so I've been unlucky with my GTX285's >.<
Started off, I bought two from the egg, all is good for about a month. Then I start getting blue screens when SLI is enabled, and the computer won't boot, blue screens as soon as it hits windows and tries to initialize the display drivers. Call EVGA, RMA secondary card, it's determined it has faulty video memory..
I received my replacement on Friday, only to my dismay that it does not show up in the Device Manager. I try uninstalling/reinstalling the drivers, reseating the card, etc. No dice, so I move the card into my primary PCIe slot and sure enough, the computer doesn't POST, there was a long series of beeps and then it just sat there.
Anybody have any ideas for the new card? EVGA is already going to RMA but I want to avoid sending it in if I don't have to.
