Hi guys, i bought a 6800 ultra off someone about two months ago, and it arrived on my doorstep in nothing more than a envelope with some thin bubble wrap. i paid £10 for post and it literally arrived on the doorstep, not recorded, got it when i got home.
it has never ran properly for me, though it was fine when it left his apparently, and produces tons of articfacts, on bootup, in windows and all the time, and 3dmark does not recogise any gfx card. he however maintains that it wasnt the post that did it, and yet it was fine there and not here. anyway, any ideas how i can fix it, heres some links to the artifacts.
