Graphics Problems

[Le_Hussard]

The power supply is Antec Truepower Trio, 650 Watts.

As for the second port, it looks like it's made only for a second graphics card to run in SLI. The motherboard manual says that only the main port is supposed to be used with a single graphics card. I did try it still, but there was no image on the monitor.

Heating does not seem to be an issue either. The graphics card stays around 55 C most of the time.

Do you think I can limit this problem to the motherboard then, or could it be something else, like the hard drive? Or a conflict with the sound card (not sure if that's possible)?

Edit: Also, I have the latest drivers.

How much memory do you have?

I have 2 GB of RAM. Don't remember the exact name.

Did you use the same drivers in your friends machine?

 

[Le_Hussard]

Yes, they were the same, latest drivers. I also made sure to completely uninstall the previous drivers first, hoping it would make any difference.

Here is a very typical example of what happens: https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/dnovikov/shared/graphics_problem.jpg

When I move the chamera around, the weirdness either changes or disappears, but then appears again frequently enough to be extremely annoying.
