issued 7600 GT (agp)

hey.. i've bought my 7600 Gt Tdh (agp) from Leadtek thursday.. i had to leave friday.. anyhow.. what's the deal with it ? im pretty disappointed.. i start it with a fresh Xp Sp2 and i've installed the 91.47 drivers.. everything seamed to go fine until i was trying to watch a movie.. it simply crashes.. it's not about codecs and stuff like that.. maybe i should mention my system.. it's pretty old but. MSi KT400 , AMD Xp 2000+ , 1G Ram 400 with this Gf 7600GT.. now lately it started to sound like a mosquito when im trying to play or do some banchmarks..it came with Serious Sam 2.. the game crashes at the very beggining.. i did switch off Write Combining and im still not able to watch any clip or movie.. any help please ?

that is *really* hard to read.

Some Questions:

Have you got the latest bios for your motherboard?
Latest Drivers for the motherboard?
Re-installed DirectX ?
What do you mean by fresh install? Ie format then installed? rather than installing over an existing windows installation?
How do you know its not a codec issue?
What do you mean by "lately it started to sound like a mosquito"?

:)

well.. im sorry for my english 1st of all.. i promise i will work on it ;).. i have DirectX 9.0c installed... yup that's what i mean by fresh.. and about the sound.. it starts to make some weird noises when im trying to play a game.. just when i play games.. the temp. is stabile around 42 degrees.. i've tried with the drivers on the Leadtek cd and with the latest drivers on the nvidia site.I still see buged textures while playing , the movies doesn't work at all and the noise.. what's with the noise ? i really don't think it suppose to sound like that..it's not a codec problem because with my old video card (fx 5200 from abit ) with the same codecs i had no problem.. any other ideeas ?

problem solved :D :D .. latest mainboard drivers and everything turned well.. thanks for the tip mate :)

no worries, glad you're all sorted :)
