Various Topics on Videocard Nvidia

..gS..

I have a ASUS V9980 Ultra (Nvidia FX5950 chipset) AGP graphics card.

Computer works fine until i run games.

When i play a game i get m***ive "spikes" and lines coming from the
distance, random drawn coloured lines flashing up everywhere and they
obscure everything making some games unplayable.

What are they? Why does it do this??? How can i fix this problem???? is my
card goosed!!!???? Please somebody help me!

My AGP aparture to 256 MB and ive downloaded all of the latest drivers
(Nvidias and ASUS's own) and still the same thing.

Please help me!

Cheers

BigSie

Do you have FSAA turned on as default, possibly set too high? Only time I
saw something like this was when I set FSAA to maximum on NFS Underground...

Also change your AGP aperture to 128 or even 64 and try that.

Also, what air flow do you have going through the comp?
Take the side of the case off and see if that makes a difference.
