got my 6600gt from pcworld and am happy with it apart from this damn ghosting im getting ,i dont mean ghosting as in lcd monitor ghosting(i use a crt) i mean ghosting as in the picture
(illustrates it best ,but aint exactly how it looks)
first thought was interference but cant see it being that as i didnt move the comp or monitor when i installed it, i also thought it might be the dvi-vga adapter but i tried another 1 and it actually got worse
any ideas ppl?
Unclean power being supplied to it?
PHP Code:$s = new signature();
$s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();
hmmm never thought of that , and on the same cable it is also connected to a harddrive ,will give it its own cable and see if that fixes it
What's the monitor cable like? What res are you running at, and does it occur if you drop the resolution or the refresh rate? Sounds like it could be your cable or interface between monitor and card. The DVI-VGA adapter could be at fault. Have you access to another video card to test the monitor or an LCD screen to test the card with a DVI cable? I used to get exactly the same ghosting when using a manual KVM, and it usually occurs when you've got a poor connection somewhere.
well its on its own power cable now and its still there so that aint the problem, running at the same res as i was with the geforce 3 i had before i installed the 6600, only got the 1 spare dvi- vga dongle and that made it worse ,and the monitor cable is perfect
i will be transfering everything into a new case next week so i might just leave it till then and try with a diff monitor and try and source a new dvi-vga dongle to try
New years day and you have double vision... lol
Isn't that just normal.
Does it still happen at lower resolutions than this though? If it does, even down to 640x480x256 colours, it suggests the card is at fault. If not it looks like your adapter or cabling can't cope with a high bandwidth signal. Try it and let us know your findings.Originally Posted by da_ging
